The Study of Drag Reduction on Ships Inspired by Simplified Shark Skin Imitation

Applied Bionics and Biomechanics, 2018
The skin of a fast swimming shark reveals riblet structures that help reduce the shark’s skin friction drag, enhancing its efficiency and speed while moving in the water.

Stability of the flow over superhydrophobic micro roughnesses: The influence of the interface

International Journal of Thermofluids
Superhydrophobic surfaces are known for their drag reduction properties. However, the interface between the lubricant and the overlying flow may easily become unstable, leading to the depletion of the superhydrophobic layer and to a consequent drag ...

CHARACTERISATION OF MULTIPHASE FLUID-STRUCTURE INTERACTION USING NON-INTRUSIVE OPTICAL TECHNIQUES [PDF]

, 2011
The purpose of this study is to determine experimentally the effectiveness of passive drag reduction techniques (which involve adjusting surface geometry) within a chaotic multiphase flow system. To quantify the intrusion and disturbance caused, a liquid-
