Computational Assessment of the Fluid Flow around Coasting Mature Male Blue Sharks, Prionace glauca (L.)
Figure 6
(a) Pathlines in the - plane along the lateral line of the body models of specimen A showing the channelling of the flow along the lateral line and the reduction in velocity magnitude. (b) Pathlines in the - plane along the equivalent position of the lateral line in specimen A for the control cylinder “a” showing the reduced bunching effect of the pathlines near the model surface due to boundary layer effects alone (pathlines coloured by velocity magnitude, m ).
