Control of flow separation
Micro Air Vehicles (MAVs) are often required to operate in small and enclosed spaces at low speeds, and thus, it is important for MAVs to have high manoeuvrability in order to complete their missions. The use of self-activated flaps as a means of enhancing lift at high angles of attack as well as de...
