Direct Measurements of the Wing Kinematics of a Bat in Straight Flight
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Bat is the only mammal in the nature that can fly. Compared with birds and insects, bats are quite special in that their wings are formed by an elastic membrane, which renders that the airfoil deforms greatly during ...
Reconstruction of Flight Parameters of a Bat for Flapping Robots
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The flight of bats is comparatively less documented and understood than birds and insects and may provide novel inspiration for the design of flapping flight robots. This study captured the natural flight of short-nosed ...
