Learning from bat: Aerodynamics of actively morphing wing
Different from birds and insects, bats have complex wing-deformation capacity to generate high aerodynamic forces. In flight, the actively morphing of bat wing includes the twisting from wing root to wing tip, the cambering along the chordwise direction, the bending along the spanwise direction and...
