It first discusses the morphology of the humpback whale flipper from a biological perspective, before presenting detailed experimental and numerical findings from past investigations by various experts on the benefits of leading-edge tubercles and their engineering implementations. Leading-edge tubercle designs and functions have attracted considerable interest from researchers in terms of understanding their role in the underwater agility of these whales, and to exploit their flow dynamics in the development of new and novel engineering solutions. Extensive research over the past recent years has demonstrated that the maneuverability of these whales is at least in part due to the leading-edge tubercles acting as passive flow control devices to delay stall and increase lift in the post-stall regime. In addition to the inherent benefits in terms of aerodynamics and hydrodynamics, investigations into leading-edge tubercles have also broadened into areas of noise attenuation, stability and industrial applications. This book touches upon these areas, with an emphasis upon the effects of lifting-surface types, flow regimes, tubercle geometries, lifting-surface stability and potential industrial applications, among others. As such, it features contributions from key experts in the fields of biology, physics and engineering who have conducted significant studies into understanding the various aspects of leading-edge tubercles. Given the broad coverage and in-depth analysis, this book will benefit academic researchers, practicing engineers and graduate students interested in tapping into such a unique but highly functional flow control strategy. 606 $aFluids 606 $aFluid mechanics 606 $aAerospace engineering 606 $aAstronautics 606 $aAnimal anatomy 606 $aEngineering design 606 $aFluid- and Aerodynamics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P21026 606 $aEngineering Fluid Dynamics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T15044 606 $aAerospace Technology and Astronautics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T17050 606 $aAnimal Anatomy / Morphology / Histology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L25015 606 $aEngineering Design$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T17020 606 $aFluid- and Aerodynamics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P21026 615 0$aFluids. 615 0$aFluid mechanics. 615 0$aAerospace engineering. 615 0$aAstronautics. 615 0$aAnimal anatomy. 615 0$aEngineering design. 615 14$aFluid- and Aerodynamics. 615 24$aEngineering Fluid Dynamics. 615 24$aAerospace Technology and Astronautics. 615 24$aAnimal Anatomy / Morphology / Histology. 615 24$aEngineering Design. 615 24$aFluid- and Aerodynamics. 676 $a532.0595 702 $aNew$b Daniel T.
