不同翼展的V形和梯队北秃朱鹭的集群:重新定位和节能
Flocking of V-shaped and Echelon Northern Bald Ibises with Different Wingspans: Repositioning and Energy Saving
摘要:
V形和梯形的队形有助于候鸟在迁徙时消耗更少的能量。作为案例研究,北秃朱鹭的编队飞行被认为是调查不同的影响,它们的飞行效率。翼尖间距和翼展的影响进行了研究的个别阻力的每一个朱鹭在羊群。在这项研究中考虑了两种情况,(1)增加和(2)减少翼展向尾巴。提出了一种替代机制和负载平衡算法。在该替换机制中,具有最高剩余能量值的Ibise被具有最低能量的Ibise迭代地替换。结果表明,根据不同大小的鸟类在鸟群中的位置,它们消耗不同水平的能量。此外,人们发现,小鸟也有机会在羊群中领先。
英文摘要:
V-shaped and echelon formations help migratory birds to consume less energy for migration. As the case study, the formation flight of the Northern Bald Ibises is considered to investigate different effects on their flight efficiency. The effects of the wingtip spacing and wingspan are examined on the individual drag of each Ibis in the flock. Two scenarios are considered in this study, (1) increasing and (2) decreasing wingspans toward the tail. An algorithm is applied for replacement mechanism and load balancing of the Ibises during their flight. In this replacing mechanism, the Ibises with the highest value of remained energy are replaced with the Ibises with the lowest energy, iteratively. The results indicate that depending on the positions of the birds with various sizes in the flock, they consume a different level of energy. Moreover, it is found that also small birds have the chance to take the lead during the flock.
