Simulation Analysis of the Aerodynamic Performance of a Bionic Aircraft with Foldable Beetle Wings in Gliding Flight
Beetles have excellent flight performance. Based on the four-plate mechanism theory, a novel bionic flapping aircraft with foldable beetle wings was designed. It can perform flapping, gliding, wing folding, and abduction/adduction movements with a self-locking function. In order to study the flight...
