Drag reduction using wrinkled surfaces in high Reynolds number laminar boundary layer flows

Inspired by the design of the ribbed structure of shark skin, passive drag reduction methods using stream-wise riblet surfaces have previously been developed and tested over a wide range of flow conditions. Such textures aligned in the flow direction have been shown to be able to reduce skin frictio...
