Beaumont, F., Murer, S., Bogard, F., Polidori, G. “… Methods used to study drafting include wind tunnel tests, computational fluid dynamics (CFD), and field observations.  …”

Maddocks, P., Walker, A. D. “… This paper presents an aerodynamic investigation into the effect of arm position on drag using Computational Fluid Dynamics. The lowest drag was achieved by moving the hands/arms into a higher position in conjunction to narrowing the elbows better guided the air over the rider`s head and away from the centre of the rider`s body.  …”

Taylor, M., Butcher, D., Crickmore, C., Walker, A. D. “… On a flat road, at race speeds, aerodynamic drag is the main resistive force a cyclist must overcome. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) can be a useful tool to predict and understand the complex flow and, therefore, drive developments to reduce drag.  …”

Feier, I., Redfield, R. “… A transient, numerical, MATLAB, lumped parameter thermal/mechanical model is created to predict the impact of key design parameters on braking performance and to understand the heat loss mechanisms from the brake system components. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations are used to estimate the disc surface convective cooling coefficients for the model.  …”

Blocken, B., Malizia, F., van Druenen, T., Gillmeier, S. “… Wind tunnel measurements and numerical simulations with computational fluid dynamics were performed. It was shown that drafting at separation distances d = 2.64, 10, 30 and 50 m can reduce the drag of the cyclist down to 52, 77, 88 and 93% of that of an isolated cyclist, respectively.  …”
