Aerodynamic Interference between Oscillating Lifting Surfaces and Fuselage. Part 4: Flapping and Pitching WingsLaws for Micro-Air Vehicles (MAV) in Straight Flight
Journal Title: INCAS BULLETIN - Year 2014, Vol 6, Issue 3
Abstract
In the fourth article of our series we continue to deal with the calculation of the aerodynamic unsteady forces on lifting surfaces. Now we present some applications of the theory discussed in the previous papers to the study of flapping wings.

Flight Performance of the Biological Lifting Surface
In the international research, biomimetic lifting surface are analyzed in various aspects: construction, aerodynamics and energy. The specificity of the flying wings determined similarity between the aeromechanical and t...
A 2D description of the single crystal thin plate growth from the melt by micro- pulling- down method. Part 2
This paper is the second part of a 2D description of a single crystal thin plate growth by micro-pulling–down (μ-PD) method. This part concerns the following aspects: temperature distribution and melt flow in the melt–cr...
