Biologically-Inspired Bodies Under Surface Waves—Part 1: Load Measurements
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Measurements have been carried out in a tow tank on cylindrical bodies submerged in proximity of traveling surface waves. Two bodies are considered: a reference plain cylinder and another ...
Experimental Simulation of Fish-Inspired Unsteady Vortex Dynamics on a Rigid Cylinder
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The unsteady hydrodynamics of the tail flapping and head oscillation of a fish, and their phased interaction, are considered in a laboratory simulation. Two experiments are described where the ...
