I did see the results on a gun turret experiment at low mach numbers M=0.1 to 0.2 with impressive results. So most of the articles and information I had only loosely corolate to the method. (same methodology different flow fields). <BR/><BR/>www.aiaa.org has a publication search. <BR/>http://www.aiaa.org/content.cfm?pageid=413&reseta=1&versionid=533<BR/><BR/>search the word "bumps" and you will get some serious engineering articles. <BR/><BR/>Thats the best i can do, there aren't a lot of unclassified or proprietary documents in the open realm.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13033755790922017710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13887692.post-47046399005552127442008-07-09T11:36:00.000-04:002008-07-09T11:36:00.000-04:00Russ, I was interested in knowing more about this....Russ, <BR/><BR/>I was interested in knowing more about this.

I have a M.S. in engineering with a focus in experimental fluid mechanics. The stuff they are talking about on the bike is true, it works, its crazy cool to study, but very tempermental. Finger prints can affect the airflow. <BR/><BR/>I would say the airfoils on the forks work, but the boundary layer technology I have not seen on a bike yet so I am not quite sold on that yet. In theory and experience it works, but I have only seen it in a wind tunnel, and the tour de france is not a wind tunnel. (I sure would love to work on that project)<BR/><BR/>RussUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13033755790922017710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13887692.post-2378220705650622622008-07-09T07:46:00.000-04:002008-07-09T07:46:00.000-04:00I think I am right in saying that he didn't bother...I think I am right in saying that he didn't bother with skin shoes, I wonder why?Rich Gift Of Linshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17868005278180471114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13887692.post-33320981797417032702008-07-08T23:48:00.000-04:002008-07-08T23:48:00.000-04:00Answered my own question, it was a Walser.Answered my own question, it was a Walser.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13887692.post-49317309031506200892008-07-08T23:13:00.000-04:002008-07-08T23:13:00.000-04:00Anyone know what bike Shumacher rode to win?
