The Effect of Stroke Length on Active Drag in Swimming
The main resistive force in swimming is due to drag on a swimmer’s body from the water. There are two forms of drag, one is active drag (FD), which is the drag encountered while propelling the body through the water. The other is passive drag or the drag encountered while gliding during a push-off after a turn or after entering the water from the start. These different types of drag are both pr...
متن کاملCorrection: A Comparison of Experimental and Analytical Procedures to Measure Passive Drag in Human Swimming
The aim of this study was to compare the swimming hydrodynamics assessed with experimental and analytical procedures, as well as, to learn about the relative contributions of the friction drag and pressure drag to total passive drag. Sixty young talented swimmers (30 boys and 30 girls with 13.59±0.77 and 12.61±0.07 years-old, respectively) were assessed. Passive drag was assessed with inverse d...
متن کاملPassive drift or active swimming in marine organisms?
Predictions of organismal movements in a fluid require knowing the fluid's velocity and potential contributions of the organism's behaviour (e.g. swimming or flying). While theoretical aspects of this work are reasonably well-developed, field-based validation is challenging. A much-needed study recently published by Briscoe and colleagues in Proceedings of the Royal Society B compared movements...
متن کاملsimulation and experimental studies for prediction mineral scale formation in oil field during mixing of injection and formation water
abstract: mineral scaling in oil and gas production equipment is one of the most important problem that occurs while water injection and it has been recognized to be a major operational problem. the incompatibility between injected and formation waters may result in inorganic scale precipitation in the equipment and reservoir and then reduction of oil production rate and water injection rate. ...
Swimming gaits, passive drag and buoyancy of diving sperm whales Physeter macrocephalus.
Drag and buoyancy are two primary external forces acting on diving marine mammals. The strength of these forces modulates the energetic cost of movement and may influence swimming style (gait). Here we use a high-resolution digital tag to record depth, 3-D orientation, and sounds heard and produced by 23 deep-diving sperm whales in the Ligurian Sea and Gulf of Mexico. Periods of active thrustin...
