Energetic and Control Trade-offs in Spring-Wing Systems
James Lynch, Ethan S. Wold, Jeff Gau +2
Flying insects are thought to achieve energy-efficient flapping flight by storing and releasing elastic energy in their muscles, tendons, and thorax. However, flight systems consis…

Dimensional analysis of spring-wing systems reveals performance metrics for resonant flapping-wing flight
James Lynch, Jeffrey Gau, Simon Sponberg +1
Flapping-wing insects, birds, and robots are thought to offset the high power cost of oscillatory wing motion by using elastic elements for energy storage and return. Insects posse…
