RISWind tunnel tests for Assessment of wing flexibility effects on the aerodynamics of flapping micro aerial vehicle
An experimental setup is prepared in order to evaluate the effects of wing flexibility on lift, thrust and power loading of the flapping wings with bending deflection angle (B.D.A.). Hence, two wings with different ...
The role of wing bending deflection in the aerodynamics of flapping micro aerial vehicles in hovering flight
Scientists have been improving the aerodynamic performance of flapping micro aerial vehicles by drawing inspiration from birds and insect flight. In this research study, first, the flapping mechanism of the black-headed ...
Experimental investigation of flapping mechanism of the black-headed gull in forward flight
Many developments in aerospace science have originated from nature. One of these developments has been obtained through inspirations from flying locomotion. The aim of this study is to simulate the flapping mechanism of ...
Experimental simulation of flapping wings of the black-headed gull in hovering flight
The main objective of this research is to evaluate the effects of the wing bending deflection angle (B.D.A) on thrust force for different flapping frequencies at 10 degree angles of attack (AOA) in hovering flight. Moreover, ...
