Most existing aerodynamic shape optimization (ASO) studies do not take the balanced pitching moment into account and thus the optimized configuration has to be trimmed to ensure zero pitching moment, which causes additional drag and reduces the benefit o...

Bird tails play a key role in aerodynamics and flight stability. They produce extra lift for takeoff and landing maneuvers, enhance wing functions and maintain stability during flight (keeping the bird from yawing, rolling and pitching, or otherwise losi...
