Hydrodynamic flow control in marine mammals.
The ability to control the flow of water around the body dictates the performance of marine mammals in the aquatic environment. Morphological specializations of marine mammals afford mechanisms for passive flow control. Aside from the design of the body, which minimizes drag, the morphology of the appendages provides hydrodynamic advantages with respect to drag, lift, thrust, and stall. The flu...
متن کاملHydrodynamic Analysis of Marine Buoys
In dynamic analysis of floating structures, the designer needs to know the wave forces due to incident and scattered waves on the structure. In this work, the flow field around the body is solved based on the potential theory with considering the free surface and sea bed effects. Using this theory, the wave forces exerted on two typical sea buoys with spherical and disc-type bodies are determin...

متن کاملBrucellosis in Marine Mammals
Last Updated: July 28, 2009 Importance Brucella infections have recently been recognized in seals, sea lions, walruses, dolphins, porpoises, whales and an otter. This organism appears to be widespread in marine mammals, and has probably been endemic in these populations for a long time. The clinical significance is uncertain. A few infections have been associated with placentitis/abortions, neo...
