Abstract
The study of a flexible body immersed in a flowing medium is one of the best way to find its aerodynamic shape. This Letter revisited the problem that was first studied by Alben et al. (Nature 420, 479–481, 2002). To determine the aerodynamic shape of the fibre, a simpler approach is proposed. A universal drag scaling law is obtained and the universality of the Alben-Shelley-Zhang scaling law is confirmed by using dimensional analysis. A complete Maple code is provided for finding aerodynamic shape of the fibre in the flowing medium.
期刊介绍：
An international journal devoted to rapid communications on novel and original research in the field of mechanics. TAML aims at publishing novel, cutting edge researches in theoretical, computational, and experimental mechanics. The journal provides fast publication of letter-sized articles and invited reviews within 3 months. We emphasize highlighting advances in science, engineering, and technology with originality and rapidity. Contributions include, but are not limited to, a variety of topics such as: • Aerospace and Aeronautical Engineering • Coastal and Ocean Engineering • Environment and Energy Engineering • Material and Structure Engineering • Biomedical Engineering • Mechanical and Transportation Engineering • Civil and Hydraulic Engineering Theoretical and Applied Mechanics Letters (TAML) was launched in 2011 and sponsored by Institute of Mechanics, Chinese Academy of Sciences (IMCAS) and The Chinese Society of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics (CSTAM). It is the official publication the Beijing International Center for Theoretical and Applied Mechanics (BICTAM).
