- Very small insects use novel wing flapping and drag principle to generate the weight-supporting vertical force (2018, methodology): “The computational method is the same as that used in several previous studies of our group (Sun & Yu 2003, 2006; Du & Sun 2012) and only an outline of the method is given here.”
- Dynamic flight stability of a hovering model insect: lateral motion (2010, methodology): “Under hover flight conditions, Sun and Yu [7] and Yu and Sun [8] showed that the left and right wings had negligible interaction except during “clap and fling” motion, and Aono et al.”
- Unsteady force generation and vortex dynamics of pitching and plunging aerofoils (2012, unknown): “The observation of LEV from the clap-and-fling mechanism was confirmed through experiments [27,28] and numerical studies [29-31], and a comprehensive review of leading edge separation and LEV observed in insect flight is given by Maxworthy [32].”
- Vortex dynamics and new lift enhancement mechanism of wing–body interaction in insect forward flight (2016, background): “…mechanisms such as clap-and-fling between bilateral wings during the dorsal stroke reversal (Lighthill 1973; Weis-Fogh 1973; Maxworthy 1979; Sun & Yu 2006; Lehmann & Pick 2007; Lehmann 2008) and ipsilateral wing–wing interactions (Reavis & Luttges 1988; Maybury & Lehmann 2004; Wang &…”
