Assessment of Able-Bodied and Amputee Cyclists’ Aerodynamics by Computational Fluid Dynamics

The aim of this study was to compare the aerodynamics of able-bodied and amputee cyclists by computational fluid dynamics. The cyclists’ geometry was obtained by a 3D scanner. Three CAD models were created as able-bodied, transtibial (Tt), and transradial (Tr) amputees. Numerical simulations were co...
