Hydrodynamic Efficiency Analysis of a Flexible Hydrofoil Oscillating in a Moderate Reynolds Number Fluid Flow
The paper focuses on the study of a semi-activated system, based on a combination of two movements of forced pitching and free-heaving motion. Therefore, quantifying with accuracy the hydrodynamic forces applied on the hydrofoil seems to be crucial. This is investigated throughout a numerical analys...
