Numerical simulation of propulsion mechanism of small aquatic creatures by ciliated swimming legs (Influence of clearance between cilia of single leg on propulsion force)
The goal of this study is elucidation of propulsion mechanism of small creatures by ciliated swimming legs. For this purpose, a ciliated pereiopod of an opossum shrimp was introduced and it was modeled with a straight cylindrical stem with 10 much narrower cylindrical poles perpendicularly projectin...
