Numerical and experimental study on power extraction performance of a semi-active flapping airfoil with bioinspired dimple

Inspired from the special structure of dragonfly wings (cambered and corrugated groove), in this work, the bioinspired dimple structure is introduced into the design of the airfoil to improve the power extraction performance of a semi-active flapping airfoil, and the characteristic parameters of the...
