Tandem-wing interactions on aerodynamic performance inspired by dragonfly hovering

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2021
Dragonflies possess two pairs of wings and the interactions between forewing (FW) and hindwing (HW) play an important role in dragonfly flight. The effects of tandem-wing (TW) interactions on the aerodynamic performance of dragonfly hovering have been ...

Patient‐Reported Outcomes with Selpercatinib Among Patients with RET Fusion–Positive Non‐Small Cell Lung Cancer in the Phase I/II LIBRETTO‐001 Trial

open access: yesThe Oncologist, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Background LIBRETTO‐001 is an ongoing, global, open‐label, phase I/II study of selpercatinib in patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors. We report interim patient‐reported outcomes in patients with RET fusion–positive non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

Patient‐Reported Outcomes with Selpercatinib Treatment Among Patients with RET‐Mutant Medullary Thyroid Cancer in the Phase I/II LIBRETTO‐001 Trial

open access: yesThe Oncologist, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Background Medullary thyroid cancer (MTC) standard of care includes multikinase inhibitors (MKIs), which can exacerbate disease‐related diarrhea, primarily because of non‐RET kinase inhibition. We report diarrhea and other patient‐reported outcomes (PROs) with selpercatinib, a highly selective RET inhibitor, among patients with RET‐mutant MTC ...

Effects of deformation and vibration characteristics of wings on flapping flight

open access: yesMechanical Engineering Journal, 2015
The dragonfly wing is passively deformed under flapping and has the strength to withstand high flapping frequency simultaneously. These characteristics of deformation and vibration of the wing are important for flapping flight.

Numerical Investigation on Flapping Aerodynamic Performance of Dragonfly Wings in Crosswind

open access: yesInternational Journal of Aerospace Engineering, 2020
Numerical simulations are performed to investigate the influence of crosswind on the aerodynamic characteristics of rigid dragonfly-like flapping wings through the solution of the three-dimensional unsteady Navier-Stokes equations. The aerodynamic forces,
