Investigation of a Variable Camber Morphing Airfoil via SMA Wire and Corrugated Structures
This study proposes a novel design concept of SMA wire technology that is applied to an Eppler E397 morphing airfoil. The study suggests replacing a conventional flap like structure which is typically located at 75% chord with a smooth geometry morphing ...

A Numerical Study on Smart Material Selection for Flapped and Twisted Morphing Wing Configurations
Journal of Aerospace Technology and Management, 2014 The developments of innovative adaptive structures on Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), such as morphing wings, can potentially reduce system complexities by eliminating control surfaces and their auxiliary equipment. This technology has the potential of
