...These include the clap and fling (Spedding and Maxworthy, 1986), dynamic stall (Dickinson and Götz, 1993; Ellington et al., 1996), rotational lift (Bennett, 1970; Dickinson et al., 1999) and wake capture (Dickinson, 1994; Dickinson et al., 1999)....

...Aerodynamic models have proved valuable in the study of insect flight, particularly in the identification and analysis of unsteady aerodynamics (Bennett, 1977; Maxworthy, 1979; Spedding and Maxworthy, 1986; Dickinson and Götz, 1993; Ellington et al., 1996; Dickinson et al., 1999)....

...The equations that best fit measured translational force coefficients as functions of angle of attack, α, for the model wing are (Dickinson et al., 1999) These equations are used to generate quasi-steady translational estimates for comparison with measured values....

...Measures of the quasi-steady-state translational force coefficients CL,t and CD,t were derived from 180 ° sweeps of wing motion with fixed angles of attack, as described elsewhere (Dickinson et al., 1999)....

...…forces on each wing, we calculated the corresponding mean force coefficients using an equation derived from blade element theory (Ellington, 1984c; Dickinson et al., 1999): where F – is the magnitude of a specific force component (lift, drag, radial, total) averaged over the stroke, Φ is stroke…...

...However, because of the critical role of unsteady mechanisms and three-dimensional flow structure in insect flight aerodynamics (Ellington et al., 1996; Dickinson et al., 1999), theoretical or numerical approaches have, as yet, offered only limited insight into the aerodynamics of steering....

...It is worth noting that the range of CD – values is much higher than has been previously reported for Drosophila virilis wings under steady-state conditions (Vogel, 1967) or estimated on the basis of Reynolds number (CD≈0.7; Ellington, 1984c)....

...These patterns were chosen because they roughly approximate patterns described for a variety of insects (Ellington, 1984b; Zanker, 1990a)....
