Numerical Study of the Aerodynamics of a Hovering Hummingbird’s Wing with Dynamic Morphing

To deepen our understanding of the aerodynamics by which hummingbirds use flexible wings to hover efficiently during flapping flight, a three-dimensional wing model with dynamic morphing was developed according to the morphological and kinematic data of a hovering hummingbird’s wing. Navier-Stokes e...
