An experimental investigation into the stability of a flapping wing micro air vehicle was performed at the University of Toronto Institute for Aerospace Studies. A three-degree of freedom force balance was designed and constructed to measure the forces and moments exhibited by a set of flapping wings through 180° of rotation at varied free-stream velocities. The same apparatus was also used to test two tail configurations. A two-dimensional simulation program was written using MATLAB software to identify stable vehicle configurations at or near the hovering condition. A total of four case studies were performed, and each revealed the vehicle had inherent stability. The presence of a tail on the vehicle produced only marginal effects. Of crucial importance was the placement of the vehicle center of gravity with respect to the wings. A preferred distance of 3.5 cm from the c.g. to the leading edge of the wings allowed for stable flight under all cases studied.

Flapping wing vehicles (FWVs) have unique flight characteristics and the successful flight of such a vehicle depends upon efficient design of the flapping mechanisms while keeping the minimum weight of the structure. Flapping Wing Vehicles: Numerical and Experimental Approach discusses design and kinematic analysis of various flapping wing mechanisms, measurement of flap angle/flapping frequency, and computational fluid dynamic analysis of motion characteristics including manufacturing techniques. The book also includes wind tunnel experiments, high-speed photographic analysis of aerodynamic performance, soap film visualization of 3D down washing, studies on the effect of wing rotation, figure-of-eight motion characteristics, and more. Features Covers all aspects of FWVs needed to design one and understand how and why it flies Explains related engineering practices including flapping mechanism design, kinematic analysis, materials, manufacturing, and aerodynamic performance measures using wind tunnel experiments Includes CFD analysis of 3D wing profile, formation flight of FWVs, and soap film visualization of flapping wings Discusses dynamics and image-based control of a group of ornithopters Explores indigenous PCB design for achieving altitude and attitude control This book is aimed at researchers and graduate students in mechatronics, materials, aerodynamics, robotics, biomimetics, vehicle design and MAV/UAV.

This book introduces the topics most relevant to autonomously flying flapping wing robots: flapping-wing design, aerodynamics, and artificial intelligence. Readers can explore these topics in the context of the "Delfly", a flapping wing robot designed at Delft University in The Netherlands. How are tiny fruit flies able to lift their weight, avoid obstacles and predators, and find food or shelter? The first step in emulating this is the creation of a micro flapping wing robot that flies by itself. The challenges are considerable: the design and aerodynamics of flapping wings are still active areas of scientific research, whilst artificial intelligence is subject to extreme limitations deriving from the few sensors and minimal processing onboard. This book conveys the essential insights that lie behind success such as the DelFly Micro and the DelFly Explorer. The DelFly Micro, with its 3.07 grams and 10 cm wing span, is still the smallest flapping wing MAV in the world carrying a camera, whilst the DelFly Explorer is the world's first flapping wing MAV that is able to fly completely autonomously in unknown environments. The DelFly project started in 2005 and ever since has served as inspiration, not only to many scientific flapping wing studies, but also the design of flapping wing toys. The combination of introductions to relevant fields, practical insights and scientific experiments from the DelFly project make this book a must-read for all flapping wing enthusiasts, be they students, researchers, or engineers.

This document presents the methods and results of early experiments, conducted at the University of Toronto's Institute for Aerospace Studies, toward the development of wings for a hovering, flapping-wing micro air vehicle. The vehicle envisioned symmetrically actuates four wings within a 15 cm diameter, horizontal disc, thrusting the air downward, using the 'clap-fling' aerodynamic effect. The entire vehicle will fit within a 15 cm cube. Following an elementary, quasi-steady analysis to estimate the required flapping-frequency, test equipment was designed to evaluate various wing concepts. An empirical test process allowed many wing designs to be evaluated through a wide flapping-frequency range and at several flapping amplitudes. One year of experimentation led to a design capable of generating more than 50 grams of thrust while consuming less than 6 W of power. This performance is comparable to the best that an unducted propeller or rotor of the same diameter would achieve.
