Computational fluid dynamics of drag reduction I

Drag reduction is an important research topic to address to the growing economic and environmental global concerns. Results had suggested that stream-wise riblets in sharks seem to be the act of work in reducing drag. However, as riblet surface was found to have dust accumulation problem, it is o...
