Numerical simulation of unsteady flows over a slow-flying bat
This letter describes numerical simulation of the unsteady flow over a slow-flying bat by using the immersed boundary method based on the measured bat wing geometry and kinematics. The main vortical structures around the bat flapping wings are identified, illuminating the lift-generating role of the...
