POWERED FLIGHT FROM PASSIVELY FLAPPING WINGS
Journal of Experimental Biology, 2013![][1] Flags flap in the wind. What if wings also did? A recent paper from Oscan Curet, Sharon Swartz and Kenneth Breuer at Brown University shows that an aeroelastic instability, similar to flag flapping, could have provided an impetus for some gliding animals to shift to ...

Forward flapping flight from flexible fins
Canadian Journal of Zoology, 1988The mechanics and energetics of aquatic flight by the clearnose skate (Raja eglanteria) are examined with cinefilm and a new theoretical approach toward flight mechanics. Film analyses show that these animals move with a flapping, flexing wing that has a propulsive wave travelling rearward at twice the forward speed of the animal.

Flapping Wing Flight Dynamic Modeling
2014Highly agile, hover capable flapping wing flight is a relatively new area of study in engineering. Researchers are looking to flapping flight as a potential source for the next generation of reconnaissance and surveillance vehicles. These systems involve highly complicated physics surrounding the flapping wing motion and unusual characteristics due to ...
