• Can Tip Vortices Enhance Lift of a Flapping Wing (2009, background): “Wake capture depends strongly on the wing kinematics [6], and performance of delayed stall is affected seriously by the stability of theLEV [4,7] aswell as theflowparameters such as the Reynolds number [3,8].”
• Unsteady force generation and vortex dynamics of pitching and plunging aerofoils (2012, unknown): “8 low Re are documented in numerical studies that support the observations made in experiments [49,50].”
• Recent progress in flapping wing aerodynamics and aeroelasticity (2010, methodology): “D NS computations, Liu and Aono [42] and Shyy and Liu [65] demonstrated that a LEV is a common flow feature in flapping wing aerodynamics at Reynolds numbers O(104) and lower, which correspond to the flight regime of insects and flapping wing MAVs.”
