abstract
The best fingers’ relative position during the underwater
path of the stroke cycle in swimming seems to be an unclear
issue. Even in elite level swimmers, different relative positions of thumb
and finger spreading can be observed. The aim of the current abstract
was to present the hydrodynamic characteristics of a true model of a
swimmer’s hand with different fingers’ positions using computational
CFD.
