(a) Velocity vectors (coloured by magnitude in m ) around the dorsal fin section of specimen C (with dorsal fin attached). Reduced velocities were described along the lateral line adjacent to the trailing edge of the fin. (b) Mean velocity along the lateral line adjacent to the trailing edge position of the dorsal fin (DF) in shark body and control models with and without the dorsal fin attached.
