Recent progress in flapping wing aerodynamics and aeroelasticity

TL;DR: In this article, a review of the recent progress in flapping wing aerodynamics and aeroelasticity is presented, where it is realized that a variation of the Reynolds number (wing sizing, flapping frequency, etc.) leads to a change in the leading edge vortex (LEV) and spanwise flow structures, which impacts the aerodynamic force generation.

Energy harvesting by a purely passive flapping foil from shear flows

TL;DR: In this paper, the response of a purely passive flapping foil flow energy harvester in a linear shear flow was investigated using a two-dimensional numerical approach, and the performance of the system, characterized by its energy harvesting efficiency, was found to be comparable to that in the uniform flow case.
