Experimental analysis for dimensional and operative features on Petrea Volubilis rotary flying seed

The study of nature, to mimic it, motivates this project to investigate the Petrea Volubilis rotatory flying seed. Primarily, the study of its operational and dimensional characteristics was conducted within a confined space, using a high-speed camera, capturing videos at 1000 frames per second. Additionally, lighting, staging, and camera positioning knowledge were applied to obtain the best recording method for the Petrea Volubilis seed. To accurately observe the rotational and falling movements of the seed, frame-by-frame video analysis was carried out using the software tracker. In this way, values were obtained, which would be tabulated, graphed, and compared with data from other seeds. Furthermore, through the analysis of the results and their comparison, it would be determined whether the seed possesses unique characteristics suitable for mimicking. That would be valuable for the subsequent development of wind blades or similar products in future studies.
