Dynamics and Control of a Flexible Flapping Wing Aircraft
Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2012To investigate the aerodynamic performance of a flexible flapping wing aircraft, a flapping-wing system were design and an experiment were set up to measure the unsteady aerodynamic forces of the flapping motion. The thrust formula and resistance formula described aerodynamic forces.

Aerodynamic Analysis of Flapping-Wing Propellers for HALE Aircraft
47th AIAA Aerospace Sciences Meeting including The New Horizons Forum and Aerospace Exposition, 2009In a paper presented at the 26 th Congress of the International Council of the Aeronautical Sciences [1], we proposed to apply the flapping-wing propellers and turbines which we developed for micro air vehicles and hydropower generators to the development of highaltitude long-endurance (HALE) vehicles and flying electric generators.

Modeling and Virtual Simulation Environment Design for Falcon-Like Flapping-Wing Aircraft
2023 IEEE International Conference on Systems, Man, and Cybernetics (SMC), 2023Bionic flapping-wing aircraft is a strongly coupled and underactuated system, and its dynamic modeling and intelligent control are still a major challenge. In this paper, we develop an 3-dimensional dynamic model for the flapping-wing aircraft designed by our team.

An active deceleration landing flapping-wing aircraft
Engineering Research ExpressAbstract In recent years, flapping-wing aircrafts have made remarkable progress in hover control, obstacle avoidance navigation, and wing surface contraction through the application of bionics. However, they still lack effective active deceleration and smooth landing capabilities. This paper proposes and designs a bionic flapping-wing

Structure Design and Mathematical Modeling of Bionic Butterfly Flapping Wing Aircraft
2021 IEEE International Conference on Mechatronics and Automation (ICMA), 2021Based on the principle and flying mode of butterfly flying in reality, a bionic butterfly flapping-wing robot is studied. The design of the robot is based on a crank-connecting rod mechanism. The input of the crank connecting rod mechanism is provided by the first-stage reducer driven by a brushless DC motor, which can realize the periodic flapping of ...

Evolutionary Algorithms to Analyse and Design a Controller for a Flapping Wings Aircraft
2011Evolutionary Algorithms are now mature optimization tools, especially in a multi-objective context. This ability is used here to help explore, analyse and, on this basis, propose a controller for a complex robotics system: a flapping wings aircraft. A multi-objective optimization is performed to find the best parameters of sinusoidal wings kinematics ...
