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…
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…
