Qualitative predictions of steady-state flow patterns around a flexible wing. (a,b) A positively cambered flexible wing (a), such as one generated due to wing veins, is predicted to generate greater leading-edge vorticity and hence higher net forces than a rigid wing (b). In contrast, a negatively cambered flexible wing (c) is predicted to generate less leading edge vorticity than the rigid wing.
