Simulation and Improvement of a Flapping-Wing Micro Air Vehicle

1. Improvement to the wing-force generation model
2. Experimentation with alternative machine-learning methods for controller generation
3. Measurement and characterization of force generation of the physical vehicle

Student will be provided with:

1. Extensively commented and documented simulation code written in C 
2. Basic instruction on the vehicle’s operation and control
3. Basic instruction on one core machine learning model
4. As available, access to the physical vehicle or data sets collected from it
