A Bio-Inspired Flapping Wing Rotor of Variant Frequency Driven by Ultrasonic Motor
By combining the flapping and rotary motion, a bio-inspired flapping wing rotor (FWR) is a unique kinematics of motion. It can produce a significantly greater aerodynamic lift and efficiency than mimicking the insect wings in a vertical take-off and landing (VTOL). To produce the same lift, the FWR&...
