The interesting part of an eagle is that it is able to
control flight which enables the eagle to control the drag acted upon the
wings. This happens when the eagle control the feathers angle and direction by
contracting or relaxing the wings muscle which allows the air to pass through
at different surface areas. By doing so, an eagle is able to be swift and dive
down to capture prays. This is most probably the most interesting feature to be
mimicked onto real life scale.
It has already been patented and applied on
real life scale. This shows that there is a value or market for the design. It
helps reduce drag and makes it more fuel efficient which is highly affordable
compared to previous designs. Also, airline companies have been studying
further on the length of the winglet of the aircraft that can be applied to
current airplanes to reduce the drag.
Since its semester 8, everyone is
busy with their own task and activities that everyone can ship in little by
little to ensure that the blog is run smoothly. Without them, it would have
been a burden to even handle all the researching and blog writing individually.
Also, having more ideas and sharing them makes it easier to brainstorm and
think of ideas.
