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

Aerodynamic and Aeroacoustic Analysis of a Harmonically Morphing Airfoil Using Dynamic Meshing
This work explores the aerodynamic and aeroacoustic responses of an airfoil fitted with a harmonically morphing Trailing Edge Flap (TEF). An unsteady parametrization method adapted for harmonic morphing is introduced, and then coupled with dynamic ...

On the Design of Morphing Airfoils Using Spinal Structures [PDF]
In this paper the design of spinal structures for the control of morphing airfoils is examined. The aim is to find structures that, when suitably loaded, can alter the aerodynamic shape of a cladding that forms the airfoil. Morphing through dierent cambered airfoils to achieve aerodynamic properties for dierent maneuvers is then possible by exploiting ...

Near Stall Unsteady Flow Responses to Morphing Flap Deflections
The unsteady flow characteristics and responses of an NACA 0012 airfoil fitted with a bio-inspired morphing trailing edge flap (TEF) at near-stall angles of attack (AoA) undergoing downward deflections are investigated at a Reynolds number of 0.62 × 106 ...

Aerodynamic Shape Optimisation of a Camber Morphing Airfoil and Noise Estimation
In order to decrease the emitted airframe noise by a two-dimensional high-lift configuration during take-off and landing performance, a morphing airfoil has been designed through a shape design optimisation procedure starting from a baseline airfoil (NLR
