It only took a few seconds, but Aaron Boone’s latest dugout moment quickly became one of the most widely shared clips of the ...

Abstract: Motivated from pigeons flying in flocks, this paper delves into the outdoor flocking flight using pigeon-inspired flapping-wing robots (FWRs). Current research and implementation of ...

Abstract: Aerial-aquatic amphibious robots can enhance adaptability to complex environments and have become a research hotspot in recent years. Waterfowl in nature exhibit remarkable multimodal ...

Researchers at Cornell University have developed a 3D computational model that decodes the complex physics behind how insects and birds maintain stable flight. This research provides the missing link ...

A new study from Cornell University is shedding light on one of nature’s most complex feats — flight — and could open the door to a new generation of more stable flying robots. Researchers have ...

The following is an edited extract from The Story of Birds: A New History From Their Dinosaur Origins To the Present I will never forget my first dinosaur wing. I was a college student, on my first ...

Exactly how did birds evolve from dinosaurs? It’s a mystery that has been with us for more than 150 years, and palaeontologists are still hunting for pieces of the puzzle today. Among them is the ...

Together, the adaptive control algorithm and pressure reconstruction enable morphAIR to truly “feel” and “think” about how it is flying. That's as close to real bird adaptability as aircraft wings ...

Aircraft wings are built to carry enormous loads, often holding well over 100 tons while also dealing with additional forces during flight. What looks like dangerous bending is actually a sign that ...
