Numerical simulations of oscillatory flapping aerofoil propulsion

The primary objective of the current research is to develop a Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) model to investigate rigid and flexible aerofoil propulsive characteristics when the aerofoil IS subjected to oscillatory flapping motions. The study is also extended to rectangular wings. Flows past the...
