Design of an electronic image stabilization algorithm for flapping-wing flying robots
During the flight of a flapping-wing flying robot, the unique flapping-wing propulsion mechanism causes periodic pitching and rolling motions of the body. In passing through different airspeeds and altitudes over different terrain, the wings cycle up-and-

Carotid artery dissection linked to intermittent apnoeic swimming: A case–control study
Abstract Internal carotid artery (ICA) dissection is a rare and potentially devastating cause of cerebral ischaemia, initiated by an intimal tear or rupture of the vasa vasorum, that can lead to an intraluminal thrombus, vascular stenosis, occlusion, or dissecting aneurysm formation.

Reduced Order Modeling of Flapping Wing Flight Dynamics
Flapping wing vehicles have become a compelling alternative to classical fixed or rotary wing aircraft, especially as unmanned aircraft technology focuses on smaller, more agile platforms. Flying insects provide an inspiration for the control of flapping

ABSTRACT The previously monotypic Neotropical genus Hyptiocheta Becker, 1922 is reviewed. Hyptiocheta convexa Becker, 1922 is redescribed, and three new species are described and illustrated from South America: H. archaeoptera Quevedo, Soares & Lamas sp. nov. (Ecuador), H. chuspi Quevedo, Soares & Gutiérrez‐Bustamante sp. nov. (Peru) and H.

Odor–visual and visual–visual matching to sample with dogs
Abstract Matching‐to‐sample (MTS) procedures are commonly employed to study learning and behavior, but they have rarely been used with dogs. One MTS procedure that might have applied and experimental value is an odor–visual matching procedure in which selection of a specific visual stimulus is reinforced following exposure to a specific odor.

Efficient flapping flight of pterosaurs
In the late eighteenth century, humans discovered the first pterosaur fossil remains and have been fascinated by their existence ever since. Pterosaurs exploited their membrane wings in a sophisticated manner for flight control and propulsion, and were ...

Stability And Control Of Flapping Flight: Modeling, Simulation, And Analysis [PDF]
We study the stability and control of flapping flight of insects. To quantify the stability and to assess the control, we build a 3D dynamic flight model, which takes into account the instantaneous coupling between the insect body and the wings.

Flapping flight for biomimetic robotic insects: Part I - System modeling
This paper presents the mathematical modeling of flapping flight inch-size micro aerial vehicles (MAVs), namely micromechanical flying insects (MFIs). The target robotic insects are electromechanical devices propelled by a pair of independent flapping ...
