Resolution: standard / high Figure 3.
A snapshot description of the flow around a single ellipsoid moving from right to
left at speed U. The length units are normalized by the maximum diameter of the 6:1 ellipsoid. Lines
indicate the paths of individual fluid 'particles' as they are pushed out of the way
and then 'sucked' back in after the body has moved forward. Arrows indicate the direction
of motion.
