Design and Fabrication of a Bat-Wing Inspired Multi-Material Hybrid Structure (IMAGE)
Caption
(a) Illustration of the structural design. (b) Direct-ink-writing of the hybrid structure. (c) Cured structure (area of ~90 cm 2 per wing, membrane thickness ~0.7 mm, total arm thickness ~3.5 mm). (d) Flexibility and cohesiveness of the wing structure under small strains. (e) Flexibility and cohesiveness of the wing structure under large strains. (f) Wings mounted on actuation mechanism.
