Riblet Drag Reduction Modeling and Simulation

One of the most interesting passive drag reduction techniques is based on the use of riblets or streamwise grooved surfaces. Detailed flow features inside the grooves can be numerically detected only by Direct Numerical Simulations (DNS), still unfeasible for high Reynolds numbers and complex flows....
