Particle Imaging Velocimetry (PIV) is used in a non-shallow ($B/h =1.5$) water flume, with measurements carried out across the $x$ - $y$ plane (at $z$ = 130 mm) and with $Re=70,000$ based on the free-stream velocity ($U_{\\infty}$). To characterise the downstream wake characteristics of 3DMPOs the obstacles are split into 3 regimes; (1) non-porous, (2) porous with a single internal scale and (3) porous fractals (based on the Sierpinski carpet). The void fraction ($\\phi=0.7$) and exte"},"claims":{"count":0,"items":[],"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"source":{"id":"1907.06075","kind":"arxiv","version":1},"verdict":{"id":null,"model_set":{},"created_at":null,"strongest_claim":"","one_line_summary":"","pipeline_version":null,"weakest_assumption":"","pith_extraction_headline":""},"references":{"count":0,"sample":[],"resolved_work":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57","internal_anchors":0},"formal_canon":{"evidence_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"author_claims":{"count":0,"strong_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"builder_version":"pith-number-builder-2026-05-17-v1"}
