Balance laws are derived for the swimming of a deformable body due to prescribed shape changes and the effect of the wake vorticity. The underlying balances of momenta, though classical in nature, provide a unifying framework for the swimming of three-dimensional and planar bodies and they hold even in the presence of viscosity. The derived equatio...
