DOI: 10.1016/j.ast.2019.03.025
Abstract: Abstract In this paper, an integrated geometrically nonlinear aeroelastic framework to analyze the static nonlinear aeroelastic response of morphing composite wing with orthotropic materials has been developed. A flat plate/shell finite element, which can model… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/jav.01136
Abstract: According to handicap principle, exaggerated ornamental traits are supposed to exert costs on their bearers. However, there is much less theoretical and practical consensus about whether and under which conditions ornament expression should positively correlate… read more here.

DOI: 10.1177/09544062221079509
Abstract: A biomimetic wing is designed by considering the wing of a natural flyer (Passer domesticus) as a reference. Since the birds have thin wings, Bergey BW-3, a thin and highly cambered airfoil, is used to… read more here.
