Numerical investigation of non-planarity and relative motion for bionic slotted wings

Bird wings have split primary feathers that extend out from the wing surface. This structure is called the wingtip slot, which is recognized as a product of bird evolution to improve flight performance. In this paper, numerical simulations based on RANS (Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes) equations ar...
