Aerodynamic Shape Optimization of an Adaptive Morphing Trailing Edge Wing [PDF]
15th AIAA/ISSMO Multidisciplinary Analysis and Optimization Conference, 2014 Adaptive morphing trailing-edge wings have the potential to reduce the fuel burn of transport aircraft. However, to take full advantage of this technology and to quantify its benefits, design studies are required. To address this need, the aerodynamic performance benefits of a morphing trailing-edge wing are quantified using aerodynamic design ...

Aerodynamic Performance of Morphing and Periodic Trailing-Edge Morphing Airfoils in Ground Effect [PDF]
Journal of Aerospace Engineering, 2023 Applying fish bone active camber morphing to the wing-in-ground effect to improve the aerodynamic efficiency was investigated using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) at a Reynolds number of 320,000. Steady-static morphing was first carried out with Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) equations in two dimensions for morphing start locations off (60%,

3D-Printed Wings with Morphing Trailing-Edge Technology
AIAA Scitech 2021 Forum, 2021 In recent years, various groups have attempted to improve aircraft efficiency using wings with morphing trailing-edge technology. Most of these solutions are difficult to manufacture or have limited morphing capability. The present paper outlines a research effort to develop an easy to manufacture, fully 3D-printed morphing wing.

Aerostructural Design Optimization of an Adaptive Morphing Trailing Edge Wing [PDF]
56th AIAA/ASCE/AHS/ASC Structures, Structural Dynamics, and Materials Conference, 2015 Adaptive morphing trailing edge technology offers the potential to decrease the fuel burn of transonic transport aircraft by allowing wings to dynamically adjust to changing flight conditions. Current aircraft use flap and aileron droop to adjust the wing during flight.
