摘要

Micro air vehicles (MAVs) represent a subset of unmanned aerial systems that emulate the flapping-wing dynamics seen in natural flyers, including birds, bats, and insects. Over the past 32 years, research on MAVs has significantly expanded, experiencing rapid and substantial progress. This review presents a thorough examination of journal articles from the field of engineering and biology that were published on this topic between 1984 and 2024. The reviewed articles are categorized into five main topics: kinematic flapping, aerodynamic performance, design optimization, flapping-wing dynamics, and stability of flapping, as well as structural interaction and CFD approaches. All articles are systematically organized into sections. This review provides valuable insights into the current landscape of MAV research and highlights possible future developments. Our goal is for this to act as a valuable resource for individuals already involved in MAV research, while also stimulating further interest and investigation in the field.
