Validity and Reliability of an On‐Bike Sensor System for the Determination of Aerodynamic Drag in Cycling [PDF]
Cycling performance is strongly influenced by aerodynamics, with most resistive drag forces being attributed to the rider. The Body Rocket device (BR) is an on‐bike sensor system that uses the same load cell technology as a wind tunnel, directly ...

Research progress on the wind tunnel experiment of a bionic flapping-wing aerial vehicle
“Flapping wing” is a mechanism observed in the flight of birds, insects, and bats. The lift and thrust for a flight are generated by the active movement of wings. It was first specifically designed by Da Vinci.

Measurements of dust deposition velocity in a wind-tunnel experiment [PDF]
In this study, we present the results of a wind-tunnel experiment on dust deposition. A new method is proposed to derive dust deposition velocity from PDA (particle dynamics analysis) particle-velocity and particle-size measurements.
