Abstract

Autonomous decentralized control, which is highly adaptive to the environment, is one of the organism’s means of control. Animal intestinal tracts perform different types of movements without central nervous system intervention, depending on the state of their contents. We have developed a peristaltic pump that mimics the intestinal tract. We have introduced autonomous decentralized control to this pump so that its motion changes autonomously in response to the state of its contents. In this study, we developed a mathematical model of this pump and verified the validity of the model by simulation. results of the simulation, demonstrate that the peristaltic movement and the segmental movement are switched according to the state of the contents.
