The mechanisms of insect flight become one of central issues for researchers and engineers who wish to develop aerial crafts with superior locomotion capability.
The mechanisms of insect flight become one of central issues for researchers and engineers who wish to develop aerial crafts with superior locomotion capability.
One of the most fascinating yet least understood attributes of aerial animals is the uncertainties from environment flow gust as well as insect/wing geometry and kinematics.
In this topic, we will use advanced in-house immersed boundary method solvers to quantify uncertainties due to disturbance in these factors. We also would like to apply/extend artificial intelligence to improve the modelling performance, and to discuss the associated flow physics.
