The Thin Solid Membrane Structure Design of Imitated Dragonfly Wing Adopting Different Transition Structure

Abstract

The structure of dragonfly wing, connected by a transition structure, is mainly quadrilateral and hexagonal. The shape of transition structure has significantly influence on the mechanics properties of dragonfly wing structure. In this paper, four bionic models with three different transition structures were designed by comparing and analyzing samples of dragonfly wings. The simulation results of the four bionic models by ANSYS were analyzed and compared, which provided a design basis for the bionic thin solid membrane.
