Canonical description of wing kinematics and dynamics for a straight flying insectivorous bat (Hipposideros pratti)

Bats, with highly articulated wings, are some of the most agile flyers in nature. A novel three-dimensional geometric decomposition framework is developed to reduce the complex kinematics of a bat wing into physical movements used to describe flapping flight: namely flapping, stroke plane deviation...
