Hydrodynamic efficiency in sharks: the combined role of riblets and denticles (2021)
Journal Article
Lloyd, C. J., Peakall, J., Burns, A., Keevil, G., Dorrell, R. M., Wignall, P., & Fletcher, T. (2021). Hydrodynamic efficiency in sharks: the combined role of riblets and denticles. Bioinspiration&biomimetics, 16(4), Article 046008. https://doi.org/10.1088/1748-3190/abf3b1

We investigate the influence of smooth and ribletted shark skin on a turbulent boundary layer flow. Through Laser Doppler Anemometry the role of riblets in combination with the shark skin denticle is established for the first time. Our results show t...

Observations of large-scale coherent structures in gravity currents: implications for flow dynamics (2021)
Journal Article
Marshall, C. R., Dorrell, R. M., Keevil, G. M., Peakall, J., & Tobias, S. M. (2021). Observations of large-scale coherent structures in gravity currents: implications for flow dynamics. Experiments in Fluids, 62(6), Article 120. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00348-021-03217-4

Density driven flows, also known as gravity currents, comprise a head, body, and tail. Yet whilst the body typically forms the largest part of such flows, its structure remains poorly understood. In this work, experimental data gathered using particl... Read More about Observations of large-scale coherent structures in gravity currents: implications for flow dynamics.
