Numerical Investigation of the Aerodynamic Characteristics and Attitude Stability of a Bio-Inspired Corrugated Airfoil for MAV or UAV Applications

In this study, two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) numerical calculations were conducted to investigate the aerodynamic characteristics, especially the unsteady aerodynamic characteristics and attitude stability of a bio-inspired corrugated airfoil compared with a smooth-surfaced airfoil...
