Investigation of Flight of Micro Aerial Vehicle with Flapping Wings

open access: yes
Micro aerial vehicles design represents a challenge that lasted for years and the fact that they operate in a low Reynolds range, which make the unsteady aerodynamic effect more influential, made the direct computational fluid dynamics simulation ...

Unmothered at Work: Organizational Silence Around Reproductive Loss

open access: yesGender, Work &Organization, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT An identity transition refers to changes in self‐concept that can result from professional or personal shifts. Although organizations increasingly support institutionally legible and culturally normative nonwork transitions, others remain professionally stigmatized or culturally unspeakable.

Can you really change your stripes? Stable wing ornamentation suggests limited condition‐dependent signalling in female common eiders

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
Variation in the expression of white ornaments, such as flank spots or wing stripes, has previously been related to indices of individual quality in birds. We measured the white wing stripes of colour‐banded female common eiders Somateria mollissima in three islands in Iceland from 2014 to 2023, to determine whether the expression of these ornaments is

A Computational Aeroelasticity Framework for Analyzing Flapping Wings. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Flexible flapping wings have garnered a large amount of attention within the micro aerial vehicle (MAV) community: a critical component of MAV flight is the coupling of aerodynamics and structural dynamics.

Wake Signature and Strouhal Number Dependence of Finite-Span Flapping Wings

open access: yes, 2010
A numerical study was conducted in order to investigate the unsteady aerodynamics of finite-span flapping rigid wings. The unsteady laminar incompressible Navier-Stokes equations were solved on moving overlapping structured grids using a second-order ...

Impact of Anterior Lithium Disilicate Cantilever Resin‐Bonded Fixed Dental Prostheses on Oral Health‐Related Quality of Life and Esthetic Outcomes

open access: yesJournal of Esthetic and Restorative Dentistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the impact of lithium disilicate cantilever resin‐bonded fixed dental prostheses (RBFDPs) on oral health‐related quality of life (OHRQoL), patient satisfaction, and esthetic outcomes in patients with a missing maxillary incisor.

Analysis of one way valve mechanism for wings of a flapping drone / Deng Xinchen [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The flapping drone is one type of MAVs which is defined as a miniature unmanned aerial vehicle that is inspired by flying birds and insects. Flapping wings can make a perfect combination of thrust and lift by flapping up and down with full usage of ...

A new species of inseminating catfish of the genus Tympanopleura (Siluriformes: Auchenipteridae) from the Ituxi River, Amazon River basin, northern Brazil, revealed by integrative taxonomy

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract A new species of the genus Tympanopleura is described from the Iquiri River, a tributary of the Ituxi River, a right‐bank tributary to the Purus River, Amazon River, northern Brazil. The new species is distinguished from all its congeners by a combination of features, such as the presence of an intensely pigmented square‐shaped blotch on the ...

Simulating flapping insect wings using an aerodynamic panel method: Towards the development of flapping-wing technology

open access: yes, 1995
In response to the general trend in aeronautics towards the design of multifunctional aircraft with versatile flight capabilities, this dissertation asserts the integrity of re-instating inquiry into mechanized flapping-wing flight and the ultimate ...
