Fluid mechanics of flapping wings

Based on the results of two-dimensional flapping wing studies, the selection of Strouhal number for steady cruising is explored. The hypothesis that Strouhal number selection in natural flapping wing propulsion is a limit cycle process is proposed and the implications of this hypothesis for the desi...
