A numerical investigation into the aerodynamic effects of such bio-inspired concept in forward flights has been performed based on a three-dimensional wing in plunging motion and a twosection wing in flapping motion. The currently considered Reynolds number and Strouhal number are Re=1.5×10^(5) and St=0.3, respectively. During the research, the mean angle of attack is varied in relatively wide ranges to achieve lift-thrust interconversion for the wings. The conclusive results show that dynamical spanwise retraction and stretch has induced three absolutely desirable scenarios for the oscillating wings in forward flights, namely producing more lift and consuming less power for a given thrust generation, producing more thrust and consuming less power for a given lift generation, and producing more lift and more thrust while consuming less power. Furthermore,the morphing wings have alleviated periodical aerodynamic load fluctuations compared with the non-morphing baseline. The mechanism of the aerodynamic effects of the bionic morphing mode is analyzed with the aid of field visualization. The current article is the first to reveal the absolute advantages of the bionic spanwise morphing. Hopefully, it may help comprehend the behaviors of natural fliers and provide inspirations for performance enhancement of micro artificial flappingwing vehicles.展开更多

We proved that for a particular value of homogeneity, the system self organizes in a state where the agents carry out Lévy walks and the displacement signal corresponds to 1/f noise. Using probabilistic arguments, we conjectured that 1/f noise is a fingerprint of a statistical phase transition, from randomness (disorder) to predictability (order), and that it emerges from the contextuality nature of the system which generates it.展开更多

The active twist schedules include two non-harmonic inputs formed based on segmented step functions as well as the simple harmonic waveform input. An advanced Particle Swarm assisted Genetic Algorithm（PSGA） is employed for the optimizer. A rotorcraft Computational Structural Dynamics（CSD） code CAMRAD II is used to perform the rotor aeromechanics analysis. A Computation Fluid Dynamics（CFD） code is coupled with CSD for verification and some physical insights. The PSGA optimization results are verified against the parameter sweep study performed using the harmonic actuation. The optimum twist schedules according to the performance and/or vibration reduction strategy are obtained and their optimization gains are compared between the actuation cases. A two-phase non-harmonic actuation schedule demonstrates the best outcome in decreasing the power required while a four-phase non-harmonic schedule results in the best vibration reduction as well as the simultaneous reductions in the power required and vibration. The mechanism of reduction to the performance gains is identified illustrating the section airloads, angle-of-attack distribution, and elastic twist deformation predicted by the present approaches.展开更多

文摘Airborne area-array whisk-broom imaging systems typically adopt constant-speed scanning schemes.For large-inertia scanning systems,constant-speed scanning requires substantial time to complete the reversal motion,reducing the system's adaptability to high-speed reversal scanning and decreasing scanning efficiency.This study proposes a novel sinusoidal variable-speed roll scanning strategy,which reduces abrupt changes in speed and acceleration,minimizing time loss during reversals.Based on the forward image motion compensation strategy in the pitch direction,we establish a line-of-sight(LOS)position calculation model with vertical flight path correction(VFPC),ensuring that the central LOS of the scanned image remains stable on the same horizontal line,facilitating accurate image stitching in whisk-broom imaging.Through theoretical analysis and simulation experiments,the proposed method improves the scanning efficiency by approximately 18.6%at a 90o whiskbroom imaging angle under the same speed height ratio conditions.The new VFPC method enables wide-field,high-resolution imaging,achieving single-line LOS horizontal stability with an accuracy of better than O.4 mrad.The research is of great significance to promote the further development of airborne area-array whisk-broom imaging technology toward wider fields of view,higher speed height ratios,and greater scanning efficiency.
