Three-dimensional flows around low-aspect-ratio flat-plate wings at low Reynolds numbers (2009, methodology): “Such forces applied by the unsteady vortex formation in twodimensional flows were investigated both experimentally by Dickinson & Götz (1993) and numerically by Wang (2000a ,b, 2004) and Bos et al. (2008).”
Effects of flexibility on the aerodynamic performance of flapping wings (2011, unknown): “Bos et al. (2008) proposed using the total velocity based on the free-stream velocity and the plunge velocity for unique reference velocity regardless of forward or hovering motion kinematics.”
Recent progress in flapping wing aerodynamics and aeroelasticity (2010, background): “[167] performed 2-D computational studies examining different hovering kinematics: simple harmonic, experimental model [50], realistic fruit fly [158], and modified fruit fly.”
