Computation of Self-Propelled Swimming in Larva Fishes

A numerical study of undulatory locomotion is presented. Unsteady hydrodynamics around an undulatory swimming body is solved using an integrated modeling method combining a 3D Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) method and a Computational Swimming Dynamics (CSD) method. A larva fish, zebrafish, Danio...
