Simulation of flow around a flapping wing using two-dimensional vortex method / Akhmad Farid Widodo, Lavi Rizki Zuhal and Hari Muhammad

In this work, two dimensional vortex method is developed and used to simulate flows around a flapping wing. The method solves Navier-Stokes equation in term of vorticity. The solving strategy is to split the equation into diffusion and convection terms, and solved them separately. The diffusion term...
