To achieve a better aerodynamic performance of wind turbines, the selection of a proper
airfoil plays a crucial role. Generally, aviation airfoils (such as the NACA series) were widely …

This paper uses the large-eddy simulation framework in OpenFOAM to investigate the flow
characteristics around two-dimensional partially porous airfoils with symmetrical flat …

The current study numerically investigated the accuracy of turbulent models in predicting the
aerodynamic performance of man-made, bird-like high-lift low Reynolds number airfoils …

Renewable energy is expected to grow in importance over the next few decades, with
renewable energy being the primary source of energy. As a result, some wind energy …

In this work, the Peregrine falcon's airfoil is derived and is analysed numerically and
experimentally in a non-flapping, non-morphing case. The airfoil is analysed numerically …

Owls exhibit unique flight capabilities in the low Reynolds number flow regime which is
prone to complex viscous flow phenomena. They possess unique feather features and …

Bionic aerodynamics is an emerging R&D sector that provides excellent cost-effective and
