Exploring continuous organisational transformation as a form of network interdependence [PDF]
, 2008 In this paper we examine the problematic area of continuous transformation. We conduct our analysis from three theoretical perspectives: the resource based view, social network theory, and stakeholder theory. We found that the continuous transformation

Multi-objective optimization for the geometry of trapezoidal corrugated morphing skins [PDF]
, 2016 Morphing concepts have great importance for the design of future aircraft as they provide the opportunity for the aircraft to adapt their shape in flight so as to always match the optimal configuration.

Multiparameter actuation of a neutrally-stable shell: a flexible gear-less motor
, 2017 We have designed and tested experimentally a morphing structure consisting of a neutrally stable thin cylindrical shell driven by a multiparameter piezoelectric actuation.

Snap-through behaviour of a bistable structure based on viscoelastically generated prestress [PDF]
, 2017 A novel form of shape-changing bistable structure has been successfully developed through the use of viscoelastically generated prestress. Bistability is achieved through pairs of deflecting viscoelastically prestressed polymeric matrix composite (VPPMC)

Bistable polar-orthotropic shallow shells [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2019 We investigate stabilizing and eschewing factors on bistability in polar-orthotropic shells in order to enhance morphing structures. The material law causes stress singularities when the circumferential stiffness is smaller than the radial stiffness (β <

Evaluation of a Compliant Droop-Nose Morphing Wing Tip via Experimental Tests [PDF]
, 2017 A morphing droop-nose wing tip with span of 1.3 m and target 2 deg droop was designed, manufactured, and tested as part of the European project Novel Air Vehicle Configurations: From Fluttering Wings to Morphing Flight.
