Collision‐Resilient Winged Drones Enabled by Tensegrity Structures
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.Based on structures of birds such as the woodpeck, this article presents the collision‐resilient aerial robot, SWIFT. SWIFT leverages tensegrity structures in the fuselage and wings which allow it to undergo large deformations in a crash, without sustaining damage. Experiments show that SWIFT can reduce impact forces by 70% over conventional structures.

Evaluation of bed shear stress under turbid flows through measures of flow deceleration
, 2006 In previous work it has been observed that the direct application of the law-of-the-wall in flows of high concentrations of cohesive sediments, results in overestimation of the bed shear stress.

Drag Coefficient for Stokes Flow
, 2022 Although the flow around a sphere is a problem well-understood at all ranges of Reynolds number, the flow around a cylinder is an unresolved problem at creeping flow conditions. At creeping flow, Reynolds number is small, typically less than one. Because

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.This review identifies key design considerations for insect‐inspired microrobots capable of multimodal locomotion. To draw inspiration, biological and robotic strategies for moving in air, on water surfaces, and underwater are examined, along with approaches for crossing the air–water interface.

Case study of wave dependent drag coefficient in the Baltic Sea
Meteorologische Zeitschrift, 2000 Proper estimation of air flow over sea waves plays a key role in wave, storm surge, wind field prediction. Most hydrological models assume the drag coefficient Cd to be dependent only on the local wind speed. However this is a simplification.

Satellite Drag Coefficient modeling for Thermosphere Science and Mission Operations
, 2022 Satellite drag modeling remains the largest source of uncertainty affecting space operations in low Earth orbit. The uncertainty stems from inaccurate models for mass density and drag coefficient.
