Flapping Wings Apparatuses

This project is aimed on design of mechanically efficient wing drive train, which allows power extraction from air flows around an apparatus.

The design of practical flapping wing apparatuses is a long time human dream.

Attempted designs, so far, are aimed mostly on improving the aerodynamics of ornithopters and entomopters. That is important but insufficient.

Improved Rotor Balance Process

This entry focuses upon the process of rotor balance. The term rotor refers to the type found in jet engines. During the engine assembly process, rotors must be balanced to a very high level of precision. Rotors are typically balanced by using a device called a balance machine. If a rotor is not properly balanced,
