Abstract

We present dye visualizations of the wake behind a flexible plate flow when its leading edge is forced into harmonic heave motion. We show that, when the forcing amplitude is sufficiently large, a reverse Bénard-von Kármán vortex street is formed in the wake, indicative of the production of positive thrust.
