Computational fluid dynamics confirms drag reduction associated with trilobite queuing behaviour
Queuing behaviour has been documented in marine arthropods from Cambrian to modern oceans. It was previously hypothesized that this behaviour provided energy savings through hydrodynamic drafting, with trilobites in following positions hypothesized to produce less drag than those leading. In this st...
