An investigation of finite wings with leading edge protuberances by Gan, Christopher De Hao

“…In the present study, Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) was carried out in a water tunnel at a Reynolds number of 2.0 x 10^4 to investigate the cross stream flow around finite wings with leading-edge protuberances. Results obtained confirm that the protuberances lead to the generation of counter-rotating vortex pairs (CVPs), similar to the function of vortex generators. …”

Investigation of the effects of wing membrane slackness on thrust generation by Chua, Jasper Dong Qiu

“…The theory for flapping wing aerodynamics is that, by increasing the angle of attack of the wing, the wing is able to achieve an increasing lift coefficient and in turn a larger lift force until a maximum is reached. …”
