A syntax of hoverfly flight prototypes.
Hoverflies such as Eristalis tenax Linnaeus are known for their distinctive flight style. They can hover on the same spot for several seconds and then burst into movement in apparently any possible direction. In order to determine a quantitative and structured description of complex flight manoeuvres, we searched for a set of repeatedly occurring prototypical movements (PMs) and a set of rules ...
متن کاملEffect of flexural and torsional wing flexibility on lift generation in hoverfly flight.
The effect of wing flexibility in hoverflies was investigated using an at-scale mechanical model. Unlike dynamically-scaled models, an at-scale model can include all phenomena related to motion and deformation of the wing during flapping. For this purpose, an at-scale polymer wing mimicking a hoverfly was fabricated using a custom micromolding process. The wing has venation and corrugation prof...
متن کاملشناسایی و اولویت بندی عوامل موثر بر تاخیرات پروازی و ارائه راهکاری جهت کاهش تاخیر پروازها در ایران determination of root causes of flight delays and introducing a method of mitigation of flight delays in iran
مدتی است که تاخیرات پروازی و مشکلاتی که این مهم برای مسافران پیش می آورد اذهان فعالان صنعت گردشگری بالاخص زیر شاخه این حوزه صنعت حمل و نقل و عامه مردم را به خود معطوف داشته است. بر این اساس هدف این پژوهش بررسی عوامل موثر بر تاخیرهای پروازی و راهکارهای کاهش آنها است. جامعه مورد مطالعه، شامل کلیه مدیران و کارشناسان ارشد فرودگاه های مهرآباد و امام خمینی (ره) در سال 1392 می باشد که به روش نمونه گیر...
Hoverfly mimicry deceives humans
It is believed that the resemblance of many hoverflies to stinging hymenopterans is a case of Batesian mimicry, though there is little experimental evidence that it is effective in protecting them from predators. In this study the effectiveness of hoverfly mimicry was investigated for humans by presenting groups of university students and schoolchildren with a questionnaire which included pictu...
متن کاملA New Analytical Approach to Flight Equations
The six-degree equations of flight in their classic form do not provide a proper physical perception due to a number of interferences. Nor do they render visible the important role of attack angles. In this study, attempts have been made to develop a complete set of 3D acceleration equations from the equations of normal and tangential acceleration αN=vωv, αt=v ̇. For this purpose, a coordinate s...
