ñ Why a such big difference?
Small amplitude pitching

∆α
center
‚ Small amplitude pitching ñ flow is 3D ñ Impact on stitching and noise

Conclusion and future work
Indirect methods are able to estimate forces ‚ Good estimation of mean coefficients
‚ Good estimation of temporal evolution for large amplitude
‚ Methods are noise sensitive
ñ Integral momentum equation seems to be more robust
