Drag coefficient of bent-awn plumegrass (Saccharum contortum) seeds in wind

We present a combination of laboratory experiments and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations to understand the wind-induced drag force and drag coefficient for Saccharum contortum seeds. Seed drop experiments indicate that the settling fall velocities of hair-equipped seeds are within 1–2 m...
