2017-10-02 02:41:21 -0600 asked a question Bird wing simulation using Gazebo

Bird wing simulation using Gazebo Hi all, I would like to simulate Ornithopter using Gazebo. Since Gazebo currently does

2017-01-27 14:59:05 -0600 commented question camera sensor does not attach to quadcopter

Can you please post the output when you start gazebo with verbose "gazebo -verbose"?. I think the opencv joint havent properly created. It couldn't find opencv::link.

Hi all,

I recently created a aircraft model and applied liftdrag plug into its control surfaces. I followed cessna aerodynamic parameters. But, I couldn't get the required flight. I think It would be useful if I fix these parameters according to my model. So, please give the source(or citation of research paper) from where the aerodynamic parameters such as cla,cda, etc are taken

<a0>0.4</a0>
<cla>4.752798721</cla>
<cda>0.6417112299</cda>
<cma>0</cma>
<alpha_stall>1.5</alpha_stall>
<cla_stall>-3.85</cla_stall>
<cda_stall>-0.9233984055</cda_stall>
<cma_stall>0</cma_stall>.

2016-11-06 19:37:17 -0600 asked a question Elasticity/Flexibility to Gazebo Links.

Hi all, Is there any way to simulate provide the elastic property of the links?. I am trying to simulate Ornithopter(a robotic bird) in Gazebo platform. The problem is the wing has to be flexible and elastic to create vortices. But, I can't find a way to do that. Is it possible in Gazebo?.

2016-07-23 04:53:19 -0600 asked a question Is LiftDrag Plugin applicable for ornithopter?

I am currently working on ornithopter model. I am not good in aerodynamics. I used LiftDrag plugin on wings of my model. It could achieve reasonable lift at a certain flapping frequency. But, Liftdrag plugin is solely created for aircrafts (not sure). Is it correct to apply the plugin to ornithopters?. [Note: The model lifts only when LiftDrag plugin is applied]

2016-07-23 04:53:16 -0600 asked a question Is LiftDragPlugin applicable for ornithopter?

I am currently working on Ornithopter model. I am not good in aerodynamics. I applied LiftDrag plugin to wings of my ornithopter. It produces reasonable lift at a certain flapping frequency. But, I am not sure whether it is correct to apply LiftDrag plugin (designed for fixed wing airfoils) for flapping ornithopter.
