Conceptual-level evaluation of a variable stiffness skin for a morphing wing leading edge [PDF]

, 2019
A morphing leading edge produces a continuous aerodynamic surface that has no gaps between the moving and fixed parts. The continuous seamless shape has the potential to reduce drag, compared to conventional devices, such as slats that produce a discrete

Optimal Elastic Wing for Flapping-Wing Robots Through Passive Morphing

IEEE Robotics and Automation Letters, 2023
Flapping wing robots show promise as platforms for safe and efficient flight in near-human operations, thanks to their ability to agile maneuver or perch at a low Reynolds number. The growing trend in the automatization of these robots has to go hand in hand with an increase in the payload capacity.
