Flow Interactions Between Low Aspect Ratio Hydrofoils in In-line and Staggered Arrangements

Flow Interactions Between Low Aspect Ratio Hydrofoils in In-line and Staggered Arrangements

Many species of fish gather in dense collectives or schools where there are significant flow interactions from their shed wakes. Commonly, these swimmers shed a classic reverse von Kármán wake, however, schooling eels produce a bifurcated wake topology with two vortex rings shed per oscillation cycl...
