Analytical Study on Lift Performance of a Bat-Inspired Foldable Flapping Wing: Effect of Wing Arrangement

In this work, we use a three-dimensional computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation to comprehend how the two wing arrangement variables, i.e., inner/outer wing proportion and mid-stroke dihedral, affect the lift characteristic of a bat-inspired span foldable flapping wing. The employed flapping...
