Chaotic footprints of a flapping wing: A computational perspective

<p>The lecture will discuss the investigations made on the complex vortex interactions in a flapping wing. The flow-field transitions from periodic to chaotic through a quasi-periodic route as the plunge amplitude is gradually increased. This study unravels the role of the complex interactions that take place among the main vortex structures in making the unsteady flow-field transition from periodicity to chaos.</p> <p>The lecture is available for viewing through youtube at:&nbsp;https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aQZxxe8YURg</p>
