The physics of leading-edge vortex (LEV) stability on flapping wings and autorotating seeds is still underexplored due to its complex dependency on Reynolds number ($\textit {Re}$), aspect ratio (AR) and Rossby number (Ro). Our previous study observed an

Vorticity transfer in a leading-edge vortex due to controlled spanwise bending
, 2021The effect of dynamic spanwise bending on the vortex dynamics of an accelerating flat plate is studied with experiments and numerical simulations. A flat plate, held at an angle of attack of 30 degrees, is accelerated from rest to Reynolds number 2400 ...

Leading-Edge Vortex Lifts Swifts
Science, 2004The current understanding of how birds fly must be revised, because birds use their hand-wings in an unconventional way to generate lift and drag. Physical models of a common swift wing in gliding posture with a 60° sweep of the sharp hand-wing leading edge were tested in a water tunnel.

Vortex–leading-edge interaction
Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 1982Visualization of successive vortices impinging upon the leading edge of a wedge reveals patterns of deformation of each incident vortex; for certain offsets of the edge with respect to the incident vortex there is pronounced vortex shedding from the leading edge, whereby the shed vortex has a vorticity orientation opposite to that of the incident ...

Leading-edge vortex stability in insect wings
Physical Review E, 2005An analytical study is presented to determine if the persistency of the leading-edge vortex in an insect wing can be explained as the balance between vorticity generation at the leading edge and advection plus effects of vorticity stretching and tilting by the flow along the wing span.
