Aerodynamic analysis of cylinder to flat plate (CyFlap) embedment for agriculture purposes

The goal of this research study is to conduct aerodynamic analysis for the agricultural Cylinder to Flat Plate (CyFlap) embedment that exploits the principle of Magnus effects. This study is motivated by the widespread usage of quadrotor UAVs in contemporary agriculture, which produces a downwash ef...
