Insect flight

Related to the insect free-flight control and stability which involved numerous experimental researches at the edge between biology and aerospace engineering. Incoming flow disturbances in many aerial creatures impairs vital factor such as behavioural responses, body steadiness and energy consumption throughout the flight. The issue of how flying animals are adapted to these environmental conditions presently fuel strong multi-disciplinary research in the field biomechanics and mechanosensory coordination of the insect
