DroidWalker: Generating Reproducible Test Cases via Automatic Exploration of Android Apps

Ziniu Hu, Yun Ma, Yangyang Huang

Generating test cases through automatic app exploration is very useful for analyzing and testing Android apps. However, test cases generated by current app-exploration tools are no…

Bistability in the rotational motion of rigid and flexible flyers

Yangyang Huang, Leif Ristroph, Mitul Luhar +1

We explore the rotational stability of hovering flight. Our model is motivated by an experimental pyramid-shaped object and a computational lambda-shaped analog hovering passively…

Detection and tracking of chemical trails by local sensory systems

Yangyang Huang, Jeannette Yen, Eva Kanso

Many aquatic organisms exhibit remarkable abilities to detect and track chemical signals when foraging, mating and escaping. For example, the male copepod { \em T. longicornis} ide…

Hovering in Oscillatory Flows

Yangyang Huang, Monika Nitsche, Eva Kanso

We investigate the hovering dynamics of rigid bodies with up-down asymmetry placed in oscillating background flows. Recent experiments on inanimate pyramid-shaped objects in oscill…

Periodic and Chaotic Flapping of Insectile Wings

Yangyang Huang, Eva Kanso

Insects use flight muscles attached at the base of the wings to produce impressive wing flapping frequencies. The maximum power output of these flight muscles is insufficient to ma…

Stability versus Maneuverability in Hovering Flight

Yangyang Huang, Monika Nitsche, Eva Kanso

Insects and birds are often faced by opposing requirements for agile and stable flight. Here, we explore the interplay between aerodynamic effort, maneuverability, and stability in…
