Flow turning effect and laminar control by the 3D curvature of leading edge serrations from owl wing
Muthukumar Muthuramalingam, Edward Talboys, Hermann Wagner +1
This work describes a novel mechanism of laminar flow control of a backward swept wing with a comb-like leading edge device. It is inspired by the leading-edge comb on owl feathers…

The Peregrine Falcon's Dive: On the Pull-Out Maneuver and Flight Control Through Wing-Morphing
Omar Selim, Erwin R. Gowree, Christian Lagemann +3
During the pull-out maneuver, Peregrine falcons were observed to adopt specific flight configurations which are thought to offer an aerodynamic advantage over aerial prey. Analysis…

An aeroacoustic investigation into the effect of self-oscillating trailing edge flaplets
E. Talboys, T. F. Geyer, C. Bruecker
The aeroacoustics of a NACA 0012 aerofoil with an array of self-oscillating flexible flaplets attached on the trailing edge has been investigated at low to moderate chord based Rey…
