Efficient Capturing Technique for 2-D Eulerian Numerical Simluations of Flapping Wings

The contribution of the present work is to develop a simple, yet efficient, capturing technique to be used with flapping wings during numerical simulation using Eulerian grids. The developed technique is based on the simplicity of the geometry of the flapping wing model. The results of the proposed technique are successfully compared with other well-known capturing techniques namely, Sum of Angles and Modified Polygon techniques. The developed technique also showed that it can lower the running time into half.
