Numerical Study of Flow Past a Wall-Mounted Dolphin Dorsal Fin at Low Reynolds Numbers
Zhonglu Lin, An-Kang Gao, Yu Zhang
Dolphin swimming has been a captivating area of study, yet the hydrodynamics of the dorsal fin remain underexplored. In this study, we present three-dimensional simulations of flow…
Morphing median fin enhances untethered bionic robotic tuna's linear acceleration and turning maneuverability
Hongbin Huang, Zhonglu Lin, Wei Zheng +4
Median fins of fish-like swimmers play a crucial role in linear acceleration and maneuvering processes. However, few research focused on untethered robotic fish experiments. Imitat…
In-phase schooling hinders linear acceleration in wavy hydrofoils paired in parallel across various wavelengths
Zhonglu Lin, Dongfang Liang, Yu Zhang
This study examines the impact of in-phase schooling on the hydrodynamic efficiency during linear acceleration in a simplified model using two undulating NACA0012 hydrofoils arrang…
How Biomimetic Morphing Dorsal Fin Affects the Swimming Performance of a Free-swimming Tuna Robot
Hongbing Huang, Zhonglu Lin, Wei Zheng +3
It is well known that tuna fish in the ocean can dynamically morph their median fins to achieve optimal hydrodynamic performance, e.g. linear acceleration and maneuverability. In t…
