Bird Flapping Wing Simulation in comsol

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi everyone,

We are trying to simulate motion of a bird flapping wing Design. I want to have interaction of wing body with air. Here I want to plot the lift force generated due to the movement of wing. I want to give flapping motion to the wing which will have a constant angular velocity. I want to know the lift force acting on the wing due to the movement of the wing in the air.

Can anyone help me with the selection of the physics environment in comsol?

I was trying to simulate it with Fluid Structural Interaction and multibody dynamics. Is it the correct way?


Looking forward to your suggestions.
Gaurav Kumar
