Electro-Aero-Mechanical Model of Piezoelectric Direct-Driven Flapping-Wing Actuator
We present an analytical model of a flapping-wing actuator, including its electrical, aerodynamic, and mechanical systems, for estimating the lift force from the input electrical power. The actuator is modeled as a two-degree-of-freedom kinematic system with semi-empirical quasi-steady aerodynamic f...
