Morphing airfoils analysis using dynamic meshing [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Numerical Methods for Heat & Fluid Flow, 2018
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to use dynamic meshing to perform CFD analyses of a NACA 0012 airfoil fitted with a morphing trailing edge (TE) flap when it undergoes static and time-dependent morphing. The steady CFD predictions of the original and morphing airfoils are validated against published data.

Transonic flutter characteristics of an airfoil with morphing devices [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part G: Journal of Aerospace Engineering, 2020
An investigation into transonic flutter characteristic of an airfoil conceived with the morphing leading and trailing edges has been carried out. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is used to calculate the unsteady aerodynamic force in transonic flow. An aerodynamic reduced order model (ROM) based on autoregressive model with exogenous input (ARX) is ...

Investigation of a Morphing Wing Capable of Airfoil and Span Adjustment Using a Retractable Folding Mechanism

open access: yesAerospace, 2019
The presented aircraft is capable of alternating between two singular working points by folding the exterior surfaces of the wing underneath the interior surfaces. This allows for a significant change in wingspan, lift surfaces, aspect ratio and airfoil (
