Vorticity Dynamics of Leading-Edge Vortex Formation on a Revolving Wing

Vorticity Dynamics of Leading-Edge Vortex Formation on a Revolving Wing

A leading-edge vortex (LEV) forms and remains stably attached on high angle-of-attack (AoA), low aspect ratio (AR) wings undergoing revolving or flapping motion at an insect’s wing. Here, the LEV formation on a revolving wing is investigated. The 'Shake-the-box' (STB) Lagrangian particle tracking velocimetry (PTV) system and a volumetric patching process helped reconstruct the entire time-resolved flow field.

Leading-Edge Vortex and Transient Lift on a Revolving Wing at Low Reynolds Numbers

Leading-Edge Vortex and Transient Lift on a Revolving Wing at Low Reynolds Numbers

The transient formation and the stable attachment of the leading-edge vortex (LEV) contribute to the high lift generation of an insect wing when it revolves at high angles of attack. This study examined the leading-edge vortex (LEV) formation and the transient lift generation on a revolving wing, using combined computational and experimental methods.

Real-Time Learning of Efficient Lift Generation on a Dynamically Scaled Flapping Wing

Real-Time Learning of Efficient Lift Generation on a Dynamically Scaled Flapping Wing

This work presents a successful application of a policy search algorithm to a real-time robotic learning problem, where the goal is to maximize the efficiency of lift generation on a dynamically scaled flapping robotic wing. Learning is performed for different prescribed stroke amplitudes to find the optimal wing pitching amplitude and the stroke-pitch phase difference that maximize lift generation's power loading (PL), a measure of aerodynamic efficiency.
