Topic title: Bio mimetic surface microstructure for air drag reduction applications

Abstract:

Moving objects, like bird, athletes, air planes, ships etc. all have to spend energy to counteract resistance. The energy efficiency of animals is much better than that of machines, which makes them great teachers in drag reduction technology. This presentation will focus on drag reduction mechanism, bio mimetic structures, manufacture technology and application instances.
