Numerical study on hydrodynamic performance of bio-mimetic locomotion
Inspired by the novel flapping caudal fin and body undulatory mechanisms in nature swimmers, simplified physical models are built in Computational Fluid Dynamic(CFD) solvers, and used to investigate the self-propulsion performance under different conditions with various kinetic and geometric paramet...
