Abstract:Increasing demand to harvest energy from renewable resources has caused significant research interest in unsteady aerodynamic and hydrodynamic phenomena. Apart from the traditional horizontal axis wind turbines, there has been significant growth in the study of bio-inspired oscillating wings for energy harvesting. These systems are being built to harvest electricity for wireless devices, as well as for large scale mega-watt power generation. Such systems can be driven by aeroelastic flutter phenomena which, be… Show more
“…The aeroelastic apparatus is modeled as a coupled two degree-of-freedom mass-spring-damper system. The equations of motion were derived previously by Kirschmeier et al [10] and are reproduced in equations (3.1) and (3.2).…”
