摘要: The wings are the most important part of flight apparatus a bird and consist feathers, bones, muscles, nerves, patagial skin flaps. complex kinematics wing beats perfect control aerodynamics make avian possible. An impaired can be viewed as an lameness; therefore, better understanding locomotion help to diagnose evaluate patient, especially when is required for release wild birds. Every condition affecting specific lead serious biomechanic aerodynamic consequences during flight. This review summarizes mechanics that might clinical relevance practitioners considering current experimental theoretical scientific knowledge available on in conjunction with observations birds various wildlife centers.
