Experimental Aerodynamics of a Small Fixed-Wing Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Coated with Bio-Inspired Microfibers Under Static and Dynamic Stall

Experimental Aerodynamics of a Small Fixed-Wing Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Coated with Bio-Inspired Microfibers Under Static and Dynamic Stall

A passive flow control technique in the form of microfiber coatings with a diverging pillar cross-section area was applied to the wing suction surface of a small tailless unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). The coatings are inspired from ‘gecko feet’ surfaces, and their impact on steady and unsteady aero...
