Gliding Locomotion

Gliding Locomotion is a bio-inspired soft locomotion strategy that, as a distinct mode within the class of aerial locomotion methods, enables controlled descent through the air by generating aerodynamic lift via flexible, deformable body structures to achieve directed, energy-efficient motion without propulsion.
