A Method to Fabricate Kelp Models with Complex Morphology to Study the Effect on Drag and Blade Motion
Macrocystis blades develop longitudinal corrugations in regions with strong current and wave action. This study examined the effect of corrugations on blade motion and blade drag by constructing flexible blades with different corrugation amplitude and a control blade with no corrugation. The models...
