The assessment of a numerical method for vortex method has been performed in the flow caused by an impulsively starting circular cylinder and the flow around a moving at plate, which represents the fundamental model of flapping flight. The temporal development of the drag force of the cylinder agreed well with the reference data, whereby the consistency and converging behavior of the scheme were confirmed as well. The force exerted on the plate was found to be plausible, in terms of the force time developments for different Reynolds number, despite some scattering in the data.
