Aerodynamic characteristics of hoverflies during hovering flight
The aerodynamic characteristics of model hoverflies during hovering flight are studied with a three-dimensional sharp-interface immersed boundary method. The wing is modelled as a rectangular generic wing to test the effects of an accessory flap called the alula, which is located at the wing root. S...
