Abstract: The paper explores two fundamental challenges of flapping flight. The first part presents a computational study of the fluid physics of a heaving airfoil to elucidate the important features of these flows and determine how the flow physics relate to important parameters such as power consumption and efficiency. The second part presents a method for creating a control model for flapping flight. Using proper orthogonal decomposition (POD), sets of orthogonal basis functions are generated for simulating flows at the various heaving and pitching parameters. The effects of these approximations on the accuracy of the model are assessed
