Aerodynamics of Low Reynolds Number Flyers

Wei Shyy is the Clarence L. "Kelly" Johnson Collegiate Professor and Chairman of the Department of Aerospace Engineering at the University of Michigan. He also taught at the University of Florida, as Distinguished Professor and Department Chair. He is the author and coauthor of books and articles dealing with computational and modeling techniques involving fluid flow, aerodynamics, propulsion, interfacial dynamics, and moving-boundary problems. He is the General Editor of the Cambridge Aerospace Series (Cambridge University Press), and is a Fellow of the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics and the American Society of Mechanical Engineers. Yongsheng Lian, Jian Tang, and Dragos Viieru are research scientists at the University of Michigan. They have done original research in flexible-wing and aerodynamics interactions: flapping-wing aerodynamics; laminar-turbulent transition; and unsteady, law Reynolds number fluid physics. Hao Liu is a Professor of Biomechanical Engineering at Chiba University in Japan. He is well known for his contributions to biological, flapping-flight research, including original publications on insect aerodynamics simulations.Shyy, Wei is the author of 'Aerodynamics of Low Reynolds Number Flyers', published 2007 under ISBN 9780521882781 and ISBN 0521882788.
