Experimental Study on the Effect of the Angle of Attack on the Flow-Induced Vibration of a Harbor Seal’s Whisker

A harbor seal’s whisker is able to sense the trailing vortices of marine organisms due to its unique three-dimensional wavy shape, which suppresses the vibrations caused by its own vortex-shedding, while exciting large-amplitude and synchronized vibrations in a wake flow. This provides insight into...
