Description

Birds use a simple technique to get airborne. However, mankind is still not capable of using this simple technique successfully in any applications. In this project, it has been investigated about bird flight kinematics with respect to the different flying patterns of birds, with the intension of developing a mechanism for human applications which uses such kinematics. Motions of bird wing skeleton were examined and analysed using computer software. Virtual simulations of wing patterns were also done. In addition, an innovative simulation method has been developed to acquire flapping motion by manipulation of aerodynamic forces exerted, which has minimised the number of prime movers on board

Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.

These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.

Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
