Fluid–Structure Interaction Analysis of the Fish Bone Active Camber Mechanism [PDF]
, 2015 A coupled, partitioned fluid/structure-interaction analysis is introduced for calculation of the deformed equilibrium shape, aerodynamic coefficients, and actuation requirements of the fish-bone-active-camber morphing concept. The fish-bone-active-camber

Aerodynamic behavior of an airfoil with morphing trailing edge for wind turbine applications [PDF]
, 2014 The length of wind turbine rotor blades has been increased during the last decades. Higher stresses arise especially at the blade root because of the longer lever arm.

On the Design of Morphing Airfoils Using Spinal Structures [PDF]
47th AIAA/ASME/ASCE/AHS/ASC Structures, Structural Dynamics, and Materials Conference<BR> 14th AIAA/ASME/AHS Adaptive Structures Conference<BR> 7th, 2006 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 ...

The effect of small-amplitude time-dependent changes to the surface morphology of a sphere [PDF]
, 2011 Typical approaches to manipulation of flow separation employ passive means or active techniques such as blowing and suction or plasma acceleration. Here it is demonstrated that the flow can be significantly altered by making small changes to the shape ...
