Recent rapid developments in micro-sized Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) and Underwater Vehicles (UWVs) have attracted renewed research interest in flapping wings aerodynamics. Due to the limitation of the size of these vehicles, complex motions employed by the birds and fishes have to be simplified...
