Abstract: The development of propulsion devices by using the propulsive mechanisms of aquatic animals such as fish is a challenging task. An attempt has been made to replicate the fishtailed motion that caused thrust in the current ...

Abstract: In the present research, a 2D simulation of tandem flapping foil following an elliptical trajectory, i.e., altered from a simple flapping trajectory is performed. The purpose of the research is to evaluate the influence ...
