In this paper, we present a short review on some of significative results on insect flapping flight. In particular, we focus on the time varying shape mechanisms observed during the flapping cycle that are used by insects to enhance the production of aerodynamic force. We then discuss a few examples on how these mechanisms are adapted to energy harvesters in engineered applications.
本文对昆虫扑翼飞行的一些重要研究成果进行了简要综述。特别地,我们专注于昆虫在扑翼周期中观察到的时变形状机制,这些机制被用于提高空气动力学力的产生。然后,我们讨论了这些机制在工程应用中的能量收集器中的几种适应方式。
