    Abstract: The present invention provides a method for controlling the oscillation of flapping-wing air vehicle, which comprises the following steps: calculating the kinetic energy, potential energy and virtual work of the system using the flexible wing with the two-degree of freedom as the research object; establishing system dynamics model based on the Hamilton's principle; setting the boundary control rate according to said system dynamics model wherein said boundary control rate includes F(t) and M(t), said F(t) is the inputted boundary control force, and said M(t) is the inputted boundary torque; and controlling the flexible wings according to the system dynamics model in combination with the boundary control rate. The present invention establishes the system dynamics model based on the Hamilton's principle, set the boundary control rate according to said system dynamics model, sufficiently considers the situation of distributed disturbance occurring at the boundary and effectively prevents the flexible wings deformation caused by the external disturbances.

    Abstract: A flight test system for a flapping-wing aerial vehicle includes a host computer platform, a measurement mechanism, and a wind tunnel. The measurement mechanism is configured to mount a to-be-tested flapping-wing aerial vehicle prototype. The measurement mechanism includes an Euler angle controller, a flow angle controller, and a tripod. The flow angle controller is mounted on the tripod. The Euler angle controller is in transmission connection with the flow angle controller. The flapping-wing aerial vehicle prototype is detachably connected to the Euler angle controller by using a first connecting member. The host computer platform is in communication connection with the measurement mechanism and the wind tunnel, and is configured to control a wind speed of the wind tunnel and display a flight status of the flapping-wing aerial vehicle prototype in real time during test.
