Flapping wing vehicles
2 - 3 weken
This book explains theoretical and experimental analysis on the design, development and flying of the flapping wing vehicle. It discusses design and kinematic analysis of various flapping wing mechanisms, measurement of flap angle/flapping frequency, computational fluid dynamic analysis of motion characteristics including manufacturing techniques.
Flapping wing vehicles (FWVs) have unique flight characteristics and the successful flight of such a vehicle depends upon efficient design of the flapping mechanisms while keeping the minimum weight of the structure. Flapping Wing Vehicles: Numerical and Experimental Approach discusses design and kinematic analysis of various flapping wing mechanisms, measurement of flap angle/flapping frequency, and computational fluid dynamic analysis of motion characteristics including manufacturing techniques. The book also includes wind tunnel experiments, high-speed photographic analysis of aerodynamic performance, soap film visualization of 3D down washing, studies on the effect of wing rotation, figure-of-eight motion characteristics, and more.
