Mitigation of jet cross-flow induced vibrations using an innovative biomimetic nozzle design inspired by shark gill geometry

Abstract Shark gill slits enable sharks to eject the water after the oxygen has been removed in ram ventilation. The reduced effect of jet flow from the gill slits gives sharks smooth maneuverability. A biomimetic “shark nozzle” is proposed to improve mixing between the jet flow and surrounding flui...
