1. Theoretical modeling and experimental analysis of the flight mechanics of Lepidoptera

Creator:: Wilson, Tyler
Abstract:: Development of micro air vehicles has led to a strong interest in the biomechanics of flapping fliers such as bats, birds, and insects, due to their ability to perform extreme unsteady maneuvers and fly in confined spaces. Determining the methods and mechanisms used by these fliers is a valuable source...
