OpenPIV-Matlab -- An open-source software for particle image velocimetry; test case: birds' aerodynamics

Hadar Ben Gida, Roi Gurka, Alex Liberzon

We present an open-source MATLAB package, entitled OpenPIV-Matlab, for analyzing particle image velocimetry (PIV) data. We extend the PIV analysis with additional tools for post-pr…

Unique flow features of the silent southern Boobook owl wake during flapping flight

Jonathan Lawley, Hadar Ben-Gida, Krishnan Krishnamoorthy +5

The mechanisms associated with an owls ability to fly silently have been the subject of scientific interest for many decades and a source of inspiration in the context of reducing…

Stratified wake of an accelerating hydrofoil

Hadar Ben-Gida, Alex Liberzon, Roi Gurka

Wakes of towed and self-propelled bodies in stratified fluids are significantly different from non-stratified wakes. Long time effects of stratification on the development of the w…

On the estimation of time dependent lift of a European Starling during flapping

Oksana Stalnov, Hadar Ben-Gida, Adam J. Kirchhefer +4

We study the role of unsteady lift in the context of flapping wings in birds' flight. Both aerodynamicists and biologists attempt to address this subject, yet it seems that the con…

Estimation of unsteady aerodynamics in the wake of a freely flying European starling

Hadar Ben-Gida, Adam Kirchhefer, Zachary J. Taylor +4

Wing flapping is one of the most widespread propulsion methods found in nature; however, the current understanding of the aerodynamics in bird wakes is incomplete. The role of the…
