i think the difference betwen the drag coeficient of
the car and that of the fish which originated the
aerodynamic form can be explained. the fish has some
spikes which are used to inject poison, but those
spikes could have an influence in itīs ability to
swimm.
perhaps it is strange to say this, because the spikes
dosenīt appear in frontal surface of the fish, neither
do they point towards the direction of the motion. the
spikes actualy appear on the back of the fish and
point towards itīs tail. but they are there for a
reason. complexity theory explains how seemingly
unnexplainable inovations are created by evolution. so
that they work with synnergy: i.e. the feathers of a
bird not only usually allow it flight, but are also
involved in protection of the skin from bruises,
insects, and heat loss.
canīt someone test a bionic car with spikes attached
to it to see if they affect the aerodynamic flow?
