Numerical Simulations of the Effect of the Asymmetrical Bending of the Hindwings of a Hovering <i>C. buqueti</i> Bamboo Weevil with Respect to the Aerodynamic Characteristics

The airfoil structure and folding pattern of the hindwings of a beetle provide new transformation paths for improvements in the aerodynamic performance and structural optimization of flapping-wing flying robots. However, the explanation for the aerodynamic mechanism of the asymmetrical bending of a...
