Simulations of a passively actuated oscillating airfoil using a discontinuous Galerkin method
Natural flappers, such as birds and bats, effectively maneuver in transitional, low Reynolds number flow, outperforming any current small engineered flapping vehicle. Thus, engineers are inspired to investigate the flapping dynamics present in nature to further understand the non-traditional flow …

… in a Kyoto garden. They used oils to paint flappers they saw on Fourteenth Street, but had no experience with woodblock printing, geisha, or the gardens of Kyoto.

Evolutionary dynamics of avian and non-avian limb morphology
… with little or no functional influence to strong flappers with great functional influence. This variation allows specific tests of the expected magnitude of functional influences on patterns of integration. In chapter one of this thesis, we analyzed the covariance structure of the fore and hind …

The Flapper's Impact on the Appearance of American Women
The aim of my paper is to demonstrate what kind of changes took place in women’s clothing fashion because of the Flapper’s appearance and what kind of cosmetic products were and are still in a woman’s bag up to this day.
