The Effects of Force on the Structure Deformation of Wing for Flapping-wing

This paper investigated the effects of aerodynamic force and inertial force on the structure deformation of wing. The aerodynamic force was tested from the wind tunnel experiment. The study indicated the quantity of aerodynamic force and inertial force is equal. The maximum deformation was produced by aerodynamic force or resultant force when wing is located on horizontal situation. The study of wing structure deformation provide guide for design and optimization of wing for flapping-wing.Keywords: Flapping-wing; aerodynamic force; inertial force; structure deformation
