Field Research and Numerical CFD Analysis of Humpback Whale-Inspired Shortboard Fins

Compared to other Olympic sports, little research exists on competitive shortboard surfing—especially research comparing field and numerical data. In this paper, GPS sensors with 9-axis motion sensors were used to collect data on nearly 2000 surfed waves. Data were collected from four surfers of dif...
