Aerodynamic interaction of bristled wing pairs in fling

Tiny flying insects of body lengths under 2 mm use the “clap-and-fling” mechanism with bristled wings for lift augmentation and drag reduction at a chord-based Reynolds number (Re) on O ( 10 ). We examine the wing–wing interaction of bristled wings in fling at Re = 10 as a function of initial inter-...
