Passive load alleviation by morphing blades for tidal turbines [PDF]
This thesis presents a novel passive load control to reduce the unsteady hydrodynamic loads on the blades of tidal turbines, enabling lighter, more resilient and less expensive turbines. Existing load control strategies are inadequate to mitigate the

In previous studies, a variable-sweep-wing morphing waverider was proposed and its aerodynamic performance and dynamic model were provided. This morphing waverider can change sweep angle according to different flight scenario in order to achieve an ...

On the Importance of Morphing Deformation Scheduling for Actuation Force and Energy
Morphing aircraft offer superior properties as compared to non-morphing aircraft. They can achieve this by adapting their shape depending on the requirements of various conflicting flight conditions.

Morphing Wing Based on Trigonal Bipyramidal Tensegrity Structure and Parallel Mechanism
The development of morphing wings is in the pursuit of lighter weight, higher stiffness and strength, and better flexible morphing ability. A structure that can be used as both the bearing structure and the morphing mechanism is the optimal choice for ...

Visualizing landmark-based face morphing traces on digital images
This paper focuses on an identity sharing scheme known as face image morphing or simply morphing. Morphing is the process of creating a composite face image, a morph, by digitally manipulating face images of different individuals, usually two.

In this paper, we introduce a novel natural language generation task, termed as text morphing, which targets at generating the intermediate sentences that are fluency and smooth with the two input sentences. We propose the Morphing Networks consisting of the editing vector generation networks and the sentence editing networks which are trained jointly.

Image morphing allows smooth transition between 2D images. However, one of the limitations of existing image morphing techniques is the lack of interaction - the viewpoints of the interpolated images are restrained to the line joining the optical centers of the source and the destination images.

Comparative Aerodynamic Performance Analysis of Camber Morphing and Conventional Airfoils
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.
