Low Dimensional Morphology Analysis and Computational Optimization of Flapping Propulsors in Nature
Flapping propulsion is widely adopted by many natural flyers/swimmers, including insects, birds, fishes, and marine mammals. It offers an attractive alternative to conventional propulsion methods for future bio-inspired aerial/underwater systems. However, due to lack of effective technology of study...
