Aerodynamic optimisation of a camber morphing aerofoil
Aerospace Science and Technology, 2015 AbstractAn aircraft that has been carefully optimised for a single flight condition will tend to perform poorly at other flight conditions. For aircraft such as long-haul airliners, this is not necessarily a problem, since the cruise condition so heavily dominates a typical mission.

Aerodynamic Performance Estimation of Camber Morphing Airfoils for Small Unmanned Aerial Vehicle [PDF]
Journal of Aerospace Technology and Management, 2020 This paper proposes a methodology to harvest the benefits of camber morphing airfoils for small unmanned aerial vehicle (SUAV) applications. Camber morphing using discrete elements was used to morph the base airfoil, which was split into two, three, and ...
