Schooling benefits from a system of active and passive hydrofoils

MM Alam - Journal of Fluids and Structures, 2022 - Elsevier
Fishes school to swim more efficiently while not much of fish schooling is understood from
the perspective of fluid–structure interactions. To understand the benefits of fish schooling …

How swimming style and schooling affect the hydrodynamics of two accelerating wavy hydrofoils

Z Lin, APS Bhalla, BE Griffith, Z Sheng, H Li, D Liang… - Ocean …, 2023 - Elsevier
Fish schools can make frequent accelerations that are almost simultaneous. While schooling
at constant speed is well studied, far less is known concerning accelerating fish school …

How swimming style affects schooling of two fish-like wavy hydrofoils

Z Lin, APS Bhalla, BE Griffith, Z Sheng, H Li… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2022 - arxiv.org

Flow interactions between low aspect ratio hydrofoils in in-line and staggered arrangements

M Kurt, A Eslam Panah, KW Moored - Biomimetics, 2020 - mdpi.com
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 …

Hydrodynamic performance of two-dimensional undulating foils in triangular formation
