Abstract

Dragonflies are small in size, but extremely flexible. For example, dragonflies can easily hover, fly forward, or even fly backward. Meanwhile, the tandem corrugated flapping-wing sections, which is a very unique characteristic of dragonflies, is also the focus domain of researchers. This paper is devoted to finding the advantages of dragonflies' corrugated wing section via numerical simulation and provides a new perspective of Micro Aerial Vehicles' (MAVs) design. Dragonflies' corrugated wing section is sparkle for MAVs design. This paper is modeling 2D mid-span airfoil and focusing on how different dynamic parameters and different flapping motions can affect corrugated wing aerodynamics.
