Interesting Read/ Research
After reading the paper by Annah
Hutchings I feel I know a lot more about
birds but her paper does focus on the feathers a lot which would be an awesome
read if I get to the extension part of my project as I would like to add
feathers to the wing I create and re create them in a realistic way.
Annah does talk a lot about different types
of birds have different wings which I knew but she elaborates on this by saying
certain birds who live in different habitats rock different wings for example a
humming bird has wings that help it hover this is done by the joints been able
to invert the wing and turn it upside down during the upstroke to help give an
equal life and allowing it to hover, whereas a hawk has broad wings to soar
through the sky which increase surface area to help it glide through the sky
and there are high speed maneuverable wings which are placed so differently on
a bird to the two other example, which tells me I need to pick a certain type
of wing to simulate or this task will become too ridiculous if I find all this separate
info and try implement it into the one wing.
I think her paper was really interesting
and I’m definitely going to use her as reference she has given me a bit to
think about and also given some good pointers on what to look out and research
