Dipteran-insect-inspired thoracic mechanism with nonlinear stiffness to save inertial power of flapping-wing flight by Lau, Gih-Keong, Chin, Yao-Wei, Goh, Joel Tian-Wei, Wood, Robert J.

“…To store adequate elastic energy using film hinges, we develop a compliant thoracic mechanism with nonlinear stiffness characteristics by mimicking a Dipteran insect's flight thorax. This thoracic mechanism consists of rigid plates and polyimide film hinges connected to form a closed shell structure. …”
