Fig. 10. Mean force vector (FN) and resultant directional forces
and moments. (A) Schematic illustrating the type of force vector modulation
occurring during the downstroke. As downstroke deviation changes, there is a
correlated modulation of force magnitude while force inclination remains
relatively constant. Correlation between downstroke deviation and downstroke
(B) mean force magnitude (R2=0.43), (C) mean force
inclination (R2=0.02), (D) mean lift (blue;
R2=0.54) and mean thrust (green;
R2=0.13), and (E) mean roll (blue;
R2=0.44) and mean yaw (green;
R2=0.05). (F) Schematic illustrating primary type of
variation in mean force vector during the upstroke. As downstroke deviation
changes, force magnitude is relatively constant, but there is unexplained
variation in force inclination. Correlation between downstroke deviation and
upstroke (G) mean force magnitude (R2=0.16), (H) mean
force inclination (R2=0.004), (I) mean thrust (green;
R2=0.22) and mean lift (blue;
R2=0.0001), and (J) mean yaw (green;
R2=0.17) and mean roll (blue;
R2=0.001). The direction of the roll and yaw moments in E
and J differ depending on whether they are generated by the left or right
wing. For the left wing, positive roll is a right side down roll, and positive
yaw is a yaw to the right. For the right wing, positive roll is a left side
down roll, and positive yaw is a yaw to the left.
