Surprising behaviors in flapping locomotion with passive pitching
Thank you for your consideration of the manuscript entitled “Surprising Behaviors in Flapping Locomotion with Passive Pitching.” We were pleased to receive the positive feedback from the referees. In our revised submission we have made a number of adjustments in response to the referees’ comments and suggestions. In response to the first referee’s comments, we have added to the paper a short ex...
متن کاملCalculation of the torque on dielectric elliptical cylinders.
We present our investigation of the torque exerted on dielectric elliptical cylinders by highly focused laser beams. The calculations are performed with rigorous diffraction theory, and the size-dependent torque is analyzed as a function of the axis ratio. It is found that highly elongated particles will experience a reversal of the torque for a radius that is approximately one third of the wav...
متن کاملCloaking of single and multiple elliptical cylinders and strips with confocal elliptical nanostructured graphene metasurface.
In this paper, we present a novel analytical approach for cloaking of dielectric and metallic elliptical cylinders with a graphene monolayer and a nanostructured graphene metasurface at low-terahertz frequencies. The analytical approach is based on the solution of the electromagnetic scattering problem in terms of elliptical waves represented by the radial and angular even and odd Mathieu funct...
متن کاملNonlinear Marangoni convection in circular and elliptical cylinders
The spatial organization of single-fluid Marangoni convection in vertical cylinders with circular and elliptical horizontal cross-section is described. The convection is driven by an imposed heat flux from above and driven by Marangoni stresses at a free but undeformed surface due to temperature-dependent surface tension. The solutions and their stability characteristics are obtained using bran...
متن کاملTowards Numerical Simulation of Flapping Foils on Fixed Cartesian Grids
Flapping foils found in nature such as bird and insect wings and fish fins are being studied for potential use in micro aerial vehicles and autonomous underwater vehicles. The fluid dynamics associated with these foils is extremely complicated and much remains to be learnt in this arena. Experimental investigations of flapping foils in nature are limited by their inability to provide full-field...
