Kinetics of Elastic Recoil in the Wings of the cicada, Dundubia rufivena
Natural Sciences, Volume 6, Issue 2, April 2026.We quantify elastic recoil in cicada wings using high‐speed videography, revealing faster bending than torsional recoil. Wing stiffness increases when attached to the thorax, demonstrating a body‐wing spring system and highlighting that elastic recoil must be understood through whole‐organism mechanics rather than isolated wing properties.
