Autonomous Flight of a Samara MAV
Conventionally Micro/Nano scaled hovering flight presents a myriad of challenges and unique design opportunities. The culmination of microelectronics and state of the art measuring devices has enabled the creation of a Micro-air-vehicle (MAV 1 ) resembling one of nature’s most efficient fliers, the seed of the Maple tree. The planform design of the VTOL mechanical samara is based on previous wo...
متن کاملSky/ground modeling for autonomous MAV flight
Recently, we have implemented a computervision based horizon-tracking algorithm for flight stability and autonomy in Micro Air Vehicles (MAVs) [1]. Occasionally, this algorithm fails in scenarios where the underlying Gaussian assumption for the sky and ground appearances is not appropriate. Therefore, in this paper, we present a general statistical image modeling framework which we use to build...
متن کاملMorphing quantum mechanics and fluid dynamics
We investigate the effects of given pressure gradients on hydrodynamic flow equations. We obtain results in terms of implicit solutions and also in the framework of an extra-dimensional formalism involving the diffusion/Schrödinger equation.
متن کاملFluid dynamics of flapping aquatic flight
over a wide range of speeds (Westneat, 1996; Walker and Westneat, 2000, 2002a,b). Swimming performance (determined in speed endurance tests for fishes) shows that pectoral propulsors in some species are capable of generating thrusts that can power speeds up to 10 body lengths s–1 (Walker and Westneat, 2002a,b). In addition, these species are highly maneuverable in complex three-dimensional reef...
متن کاملIncorporation of Computational Fluid Dynamics into a Fluid Mechanics Curriculum
In this chapter, the development, implementation and evaluation of a suitable curriculum for students to use computational fluid dynamics (CFD) as part of a fluid mechanics course at intermediate undergraduate level are described. CFD is the simulation of fluids, heat transfer, etc., using modelling, that is, mathematical physical problem formulation, and numerical methods which includes, discr...
