Leading-edge vortices elevate lift of autorotating plant seeds.
As they descend, the autorotating seeds of maples and some other trees generate unexpectedly high lift, but how they attain this elevated performance is unknown. To elucidate the mechanisms responsible, we measured the three-dimensional flow around dynamically scaled models of maple and hornbeam seeds. Our results indicate that these seeds attain high lift by generating a stable leading-edge vo...
متن کاملThe ARP2/3 complex: giving plant cells a leading edge.
The seven-subunit ARP2/3 complex is an efficient modulator of the actin cytoskeleton with well-recognized roles in amoeboid locomotion and subcellular motility of organelles and microbes. The recent identification of different subunit homologs suggests the existence of a functional ARP2/3 complex in higher plants. Mutations in some of the subunits have revealed a pivotal role for the complex in...
متن کاملLeading Edge Vortices
Leading-edge vortices that form at offdesign conditions can profoundly influence the aerodynamic characteristics of highly swept slender wings. predict wing geometry effects on the progressive spanwise development of leading-edge vortices is presented. This method, which can account for sweep, camber, twist, airfoil shape, flap deflections, and planform shape, is shown to be a useful tool for a...
متن کاملTextbook Multigrid Efficiency for Leading Edge Stagnation
A multigrid solver is defined as having textbook multigrid efficiency (TME) if the solutions to the governing system of equations are attained in a computational work which is a small (less than 10) multiple of the operation count in evaluating the discrete residuals. TME in solving the incompressible inviscid fluid equations is demonstrated for leadingedge stagnation flows. The contributions o...
متن کاملLife at the Leading Edge
Cell migration requires sustained forward movement of the plasma membrane at the cell's front or "leading edge." To date, researchers have uncovered four distinct ways of extending the membrane at the leading edge. In lamellipodia and filopodia, actin polymerization directly pushes the plasma membrane forward, whereas in invadopodia, actin polymerization couples with the extracellular delivery ...
