Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a finite element modeling method, in particular to a finite element modeling method of a flexible bionic wing with two-node spring elements. Background technique [0002] Insect wings in nature are thin and soft, and have excellent structural properties, which are the main imitation objects of bionic wings. Among them, the flexibility of the wings is not only related to the material, but also benefits from the connection between the wing veins. Experiments show that abundant soft matter is distributed in the vein nodes of most insect wings. Its elastic modulus is significantly lower than that of the veins and membranes, and it has high elasticity. The traditional modeling methods of bionic wings mainly focus on the two main components of the wings, the veins and the wing membrane. They lack detailed settings and often ignore the soft matter and flexibility at the nodes of the veins. This bionic wing model is directly connect...
