Unsteady incompressible flow simulations were performed for a modified full scale version of the GCM geometry to evaluate drag reduction devices.

"Drag reduction in fish-like locomotion," Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 392: 1999212 (1999) (with Barrett, D. et al).

JAXA's technique is based on an aerodynamically optimum combination of well-known pressure drag reduction concepts and a new friction drag reduction concept.
