General Comments

0.) This specific upload contains PART-1 of the full dataset

1.) The attached data relates to experimental windtunnel measurements on passive membrane wings for MAVs. The data was aquired between 2012-2016 at the University of Southampton, involving Robert Bleischwitz as PhD student, who was supervised by Roeland de Kat and Bharathram Ganapathisubramani.

2.) The attached data is given time-resolved and time-synchronised at 800Hz over a imaging-period of 5000 images, involving load measurements via a 6-axis load-cell ATI Nano17 /25N, deformation measurements via Digitial Image Processing (DIC) and planar flow measurements via two side-by-side cameras. 

3.) More setup and processing details can be found in the paper "On the fluid-structure interaction of flexible membrane wings for MAVs in and out of ground-effect" (2017) by the authors R. Bleischwitz, R. de Kat, B. Ganapathisubramani
Published in the Journal of Fluids and Structures (http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S088997461630370X)

4.) All load/deformation/flow folders contain a README.txt(Use 1st) and Instructions.m (Use 2nd) file, which give further supporting details how to illustrate the data

5.) This specific upload contains PART-1 of the full dataset, including introduction file + rigid flat-plate case (Load+PIV measurements) as reference to membrane wing case (PART-2)
