On the Aerodynamic Analysis and Conceptual Design of Bioinspired Multi-Flapping-Wing Drones

Many research studies have investigated the characteristics of bird flights as a source of bioinspiration for the design of flapping-wing micro air vehicles. However, to the best of the authors’ knowledge, no drone design targeted the exploitation of the aerodynamic benefits associated with avian gr...
