Optimization of Drag Reducing Shark Inspired Blade-Shape Riblet Surfaces in External Flow
The main goal of this research is to study the drag reduction capabilities of blade-shape riblet surfaces in external flows. For this purpose, the ability of riblet surfaces for drag reduction of an underwater hydrodynamic model has been investigated ...
