EFFECT OF THE SHAPE OF FLAPPING AIRFOILS ON AERODYNAMIC FORCES

Effect of the shape of flapping airfoils on aerodynamic forces

The rapid exhaustion of fossil fuels and the ozone depletion caused by the excessive usage of the fossil fuels has prompted researchers to look towards bioinspired designs for hana longboard both propulsion and energy extraction purposes.Limited amount of work has been done to present the effects of airfoil shape on the aerodynamic forces on flappi

Evolutionary process toward avian-like cephalic thermoregulation system in Theropoda elucidated based on nasal structures

It has long been discussed whether non-avian dinosaurs were physiologically closer to ectotherms or endotherms, with the internal nasal structure called the respiratory turbinate present in extant endotherms having been regarded as an important clue for this conundrum.However, the physiological function and relevance of this structure for dinosaur
