Recent developments in the aeroelasticity of morphing aircraft [PDF]
Progress in Aerospace Sciences, 2021 Abstract This paper presents an extensive review of the developments in the aeroelasticity of morphing aircraft that occurred in the last decade (from 2009 to 2020). It focuses mainly on fixed-wing aircraft and highlights some representative examples from rotary-wing aircraft.

Status and Perspectives of Commercial Aircraft Morphing [PDF]
Biomimetics, 2021 In a previous paper, the authors dealt with the current showstoppers that inhibit commercial applicability of morphing systems. In this work, the authors express a critical vision of the current status of the proposed architectures and the needs that should be accomplished to make them viable for installation onboard of commercial aircraft.

A study of morphing aircraft on morphing rules along trajectory [PDF]
Chinese Journal of Aeronautics, 2021 Abstract Morphing aircraft can meet requirements of multi-mission during the whole flight due to changing the aerodynamic shape, so it is necessary to study its morphing rules along the trajectory. However, trajectory planning considering morphing variables requires a huge number of expensive CFD computations due to the morphing in view of ...

Aircraft Morphing program [PDF]
SPIE Proceedings, 1998 In the last decade smart technologies have become enablers that cut across traditional boundaries in materials science and engineering. Here we define smart to mean embedded actuation, sensing, and control logic in a tightly coupled feedback loop.
