Fig. 7. Velocity vectors (in cm s-1; see color scale) during the
translation phase of the downstroke (between t3 and t4 in
Fig. 3A). (A,B,C) Velocity
vectors near the trailing edge on the xz plane at y=10 cm;
(D,E,F) velocity vectors near the wing tip on the yz plane at
x=0 cm (see Fig. 4B
for the orientation of planes relative to the wing). T.E., trailing edge.
