Aerodynamics of Flapping Wings for Vertical Takeoff

The present study is based on analysing a flapping based locomotion in vertical direction which is inspired from jelly fish in vertical locomotion. A numerical investigation is performed to analyse the aerodynamic performance in terms of two dimensional flat plates under flapping conditions with the...
