Universal Scaling Laws for Propulsive Performance of Thrust Producing Foils Undergoing Continuous or Intermittent Pitching
High efficiency thrust generating foils are extensively being researched for potential use as thrusters in micro air vehicles and biomimetic autonomous underwater vehicles. Here, we propose a simple reduced order model for prediction of thrust generation attributes of foils that are pitched either c...
