Large dynamic pitching for lift enhancement during the pull-out manoeuvre of raptors

Abstract From classical mechanics the lift coefficient, $$C_L$$ , required during the final stage of the pull-out manoeuvre of raptors is significantly larger than those provided under static pitch condition at equivalent angle of attack. Using data from observation in live experiments and wind-tunn...
