Investigation of flow characteristics and force generation of flapping wings have received significant attention in modern fluid dynamics due to emerging applications like bio-inspired Micro Air Vehicles (MAVs) and energy ...

Existing non-domestic buildings in developing countries account for a substantial percentage of energy usage for indoor climate control and therefore contribute to carbon dioxide emissions. High levels of air temperatures ...

Compliant parts are widely used in Aerospace, Ship building and Stamping industries. One of the critical issues in sheet metal parts is thickness variation during stack-up storage. Therefore, it is vital to investigate ...

This study demonstrates a parametric approach to optimize solar access for high-rise residential buildings in urban tropics. Using parametric modelling, 75 urban contexts were generated for three simulation models characterized ...

Bird flight has intrigued human minds ever since the Stone Age. Paintings in Lascaux cave in France are considered the oldest representation of birds in flight made by early ancestors of humans. The ability to fly has been ...
