FAN BLADE/PROPELLER

The design and analysis of a human propulsive system capable of generating thrust is often modeled after the aerodynamic principles of a fan blade or propeller. In this context, the human body serves as the propulsion unit with limbs acting as blades or paddles that convert muscular energy into motion. The torso functions as the hub of the system, transmitting power to the extremities through a complex network of muscles and tendons. By manipulating the angle of attack and rate of rotation of the arms and legs, individuals can generate thrust and propel themselves forward in various environments. This analog approach has been used to inform the development of prosthetic limbs and exoskeletons that mimic the functionality of human propulsive systems.
