Nanomechanical properties of wing membrane layers in the house cricket (Acheta domesticus Linnaeus)
Many insect wings change shape dynamically during the wingbeat cycle, and these deformations have the potential to confer energetic and aerodynamic benefits during flight. Due to the lack of musculature within the wing itself, the changing form of the wing is determined primarily by its passive resp...
