Dynamic models for flapping-wing micro-air vehicles
The project presents the development of a computational integrated model of the flight of a MAV. The created tool is validated and tested for fixed and flapping wing configurations. This preliminary design integrates the computation of the aerodynamic forces of unsteady flow of flapping wings and the dynamic behaviour dependent on those forces.

2D quasi-steady flow simulation of an actual flapping wing [PDF]
[[abstract]]This paper deals about the dynamic behavior of flapping wing with an aid of stereo photography measurement using charge coupled device (CCD) camera. The three dimensional (3D) flapping motion was captured and coordinates are measured with the
