Computational Assessment of the Fluid Flow around Coasting Mature Male Blue Sharks, Prionace glauca (L.)
Figure 5
Vorticity magnitudes (1/s) of shark (a)–(e) body models. The -axis on the figure represents the -axis along the shark body models (nose to fork in the tail) and the -axis shows the vorticity magnitude at every position on the shark at that particular value. In this way, the figure shows the maximum vorticity magnitude at each position along the shark body model, clearly illustrating spikes of vorticity at the position of the gill slit and fins.
