Abstract:
In this paper, we study and introduce the drag force reduction in flexible structures. Firstly, a review of the inspiration of this phenomenon by nature is presented, and thenthe amount of drag force reduction in the flexible structure is measured experimentally. The obtained results show that this reduction can be up to 50% of the total drag force. In addition, influential factors on this phenomenon have been investigated.
