Numerical and experimental methods used to evaluate active drag in swimming: a systematic narrative review

View document

Bibliographic Details
Summary:In swimming, it is necessary to understand and identify the main factors that are important to reduce active drag and, consequently, improve the performance of swimmers. However, there is no up-to-date review in the literature clarifying this topic. Thus, a systematic narrative review was performed to update the body of knowledge on active drag in swimming through numerical and experimental methods.
