Vorticity Dynamics and Control of the Three Dimensional Self-propelled Travelling Wave Wall in Ground Effect
Abstract Undulatory rays, propelled by the enlarged pectoral fin on both sides of body, swim close to the substrate. The pectoral fins undulate in the form of a three-dimensional traveling wave. However, the physical mechanisms of the 3D traveling...
