Enhanced Range and Endurance Evaluation of a Camber Morphing Wing Aircraft [PDF]

open access: yesBiomimetics, 2023
Flight range, endurance, maneuverability, and agility are the key elements that determine an aircraft’s performance. Both conventional and morphing wing aircraft have been well studied and estimated in all aspects of performance.

Aerodynamic Analysis of Camber Morphing Airfoils in Transition via Computational Fluid Dynamics [PDF]

open access: yesBiomimetics, 2022
In this paper, the authors analyze an important but overlooked area, the aerodynamics of the variable camber morphing wing in transition, where 6% camber changes from 2% to 8% using the two airfoil configurations: NACA2410 and NACA8410.

Analysis and optimization of a camber morphing wing model [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Advanced Robotic Systems, 2016
This article proposes a camber morphing wing model that can continuously change its camber. A mathematical model is proposed and a kinematic simulation is performed to verify the wing’s ability to change camber.

Comparative Aerodynamic Performance Analysis of Camber Morphing and Conventional Airfoils

open access: yesApplied Sciences (Switzerland), 2021
This paper aims to numerically validate the aerodynamic performance and benefits of variable camber rate morphing wings, by comparing them to conventional ones with plain flaps, when deflection angles vary, assessing their D reduction or L/D improvement.

Design and Validation of a New Morphing Camber System by Testing in the Price—Païdoussis Subsonic Wind Tunnel

open access: yesAerospace, 2020
This paper presents the design and wind tunnel testing of a morphing camber system and an estimation of performances on an unmanned aerial vehicle. The morphing camber system is a combination of two subsystems: the morphing trailing edge and the morphing

Design and Analysis of MataMorph-3: A Fully Morphing UAV with Camber-Morphing Wings and Tail Stabilizers

open access: yesAerospace, 2022
Conventional aircraft use discrete flight control surfaces to maneuver during flight. The gaps and discontinuities of these control surfaces generate drag, which degrades aerodynamic and power efficiencies.

Aeroelastic model and analysis of an active camber morphing wing [PDF]

open access: yesAerospace Science and Technology, 2021
Abstract Morphing aircraft structures usually introduce greater compliance into aerodynamic sections, and therefore will affect the aeroelasticity with the potential risk of increased flutter. A low-fidelity model of an active camber morphing wing and its aeroelastic model are developed in order to investigate the potential critical speed by ...

Basal complex: a smart wing component for automatic shape morphing [PDF]

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2023
Insect wings are adaptive structures that automatically respond to flight forces, surpassing even cutting-edge engineering shape-morphing systems. A widely accepted but not yet explicitly tested hypothesis is that a 3D component in the wing’s proximal ...
