This directory contains data from numerical simulations of fruitfly sized insect takeoff. These computations are described in [http://arxiv.org/abs/1504.04484]. Data for two cases are provided: 'Voluntary takeoff' and 'Takeoffs with simplified kinematics'. Folders 'Near' and 'Far' correspond to the takeoffs in ground effect and out of ground effect, respectively. They contain *.ini files with the input data for FluSI solver. The solver can be downloaded from [https://github.com/pseudospectators/FLUSI/tree/plos_one_ground_effect]. To install the version that can read these input files, please check out 'plos_one_ground_effect' during installation. Folders 'Plot_figures' contain Matlab programs *.m which generate figures from the article. The same data, packed in 7z can be downloaded from [dx.doi.org//10.13140/RG.2.1.2145.2562]

Supplementary materials for the numerical simulations of fruitfly takeoff described in [http://arxiv.org/abs/1504.04484].

Input and output files from numerical simulations of bumblebee hovering flights using the passive feathering model. FluSI, a computational fluid dynamics solver, is combined with a dynamical model that describes the wing motion. The model consists of the wings approximated as flat plates, connected with the body by elastic hinges.
