The effect of depth on drag during the gliding phase in swimming

The gliding phase following a swimming start or turn is an important component of the overall swimming performance. PURPOSE: To analyse the effect of depth on hydrodynamic drag force during the underwater gliding, using computational fluid dynamics. METHODS: A three-dimensional domain was created to...
