Fig. 5. Pressure coefficients (Cp) plotted as a function of location
along various dorso-ventral transects (A-F) on the spotted boxfish model
positioned at positive (left) and negative (right) pitch angles. The locations
of the pressure ports included in each graph are highlighted in images to the
left of the graphs. The location of each dorso-ventral transect is expressed
as a percentage of ventral keel length (measured from the anterior leading
edge) in the lower left-hand corner of each image. Ports in blue, red and
black are located on the dorsum, sides, and ventrum of the model,
respectively. 
Denotes ports that were slightly out of alignment with
other ports along the dorso-ventral transect; * represent transects
that were considered in DPIV studies. Blue and red rectangles highlight ports
where local pressure minima were consistently detected at dorsal and ventral
locations, respectively. An ambient pressure line (Cp=0)
was included in the most posteriorly located transect (F).
