On the Aeroelasticity of the Active Span and Passive Pitching Polymorphing Wing: A Parametric Study

open access: yesAerospace, 2022
This paper presents an aeroelastic analysis of a polymorphing wing capable of active span extension and passive pitch variation. The wing is split into two segments: an inboard segment responsible for span extension/retraction and an outboard segment ...

Coupled Fluid–Structure–Acoustic Analysis of Flow‐Induced Noise Control Using an Elastic Baffle in a Micro Channel

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, Volume 14, Issue 5, Page 2571-2582, May 2026.
This research explores how fluid flow, structural movement, and sound interact in an elastic baffle system. Using a numerical approach based on the finite element method, the study analyzes how noise and vibrations change with different baffle configurations. The findings reveal that shortening the baffle by half reduces noise transmission by 9%, while

Experimental Investigation of the Aerodynamics and Aeroelasticity of Flapping, Plunging and Pitching Wings

open access: yes, 2012
This thesis concerns the experimental analysis of the aerodynamics and aeroelasticity of oscillating wings. It is divided into two sections, an investigation of wings undergoing imposed root flapping and pitching motion, such as seen in avian flight and ...

High‐speed infrared video analysis of sonations in the scissor‐tailed nightjar Hydropsalis torquata

open access: yesJournal of Avian Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 3, May 2026.
Many species of nightjar reportedly produce short, impulsive wing sounds during courtship, but the kinematics and physical mechanisms of sound production remain speculative. Using synchronized infrared high‐speed video and audio recordings we describe the mechanism of sound production of a sonation in the nocturnal family Caprimulgidae; the wing ...

Feasibility Study of implementing Wake Steering in Floating Wind Farms: Power Gain, Load Estimation and Economic Analysis

open access: yesWind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper presents an overview of the CONFLOWS project, a collaborative effort between DNV, Marine Power Systems (MPS) and Durham University. The project investigates the effects of wake steering from aerodynamic, structural and economic modelling perspectives, aiming to provide a comprehensive understanding of its impact on performance and ...

Review of Aeroelasticity Testing Technology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Aeroelasticity is the study of the mutual interaction that takes place among the inertial, elastic and aerodynamic forces acting on the structural members exposed to an airstream and the influence of this study on the design. This review paper deals with

An Engineering Model for Static Yawed Wind Turbines Based on Actuator Line Simulations and Symbolic Regression

open access: yesWind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Yaw engineering models are commonly used as add‐ons to the industrial blade element momentum (BEM) framework to improve load and power predictions by accounting for the skewed wake effect. However, existing yaw engineering models show noticeable limitations in accurately predicting the induced velocity distribution across the blade span.

CFD for applications to aircraft aeroelasticity [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
Strong interactions of structures and fluids are common in many engineering environments. Such interactions can give rise to physically important phenomena such as those occurring for aircraft due to aeroelasticity.
