Mechanical Properties of Re-Entrant Hybrid Honeycomb Structures for Morphing Wings. [PDF]
The exceptional energy absorption, deformability, and tuneable Poisson’s ratio properties of negative Poisson’s ratio (NPR) honeycomb biomimetic structures make them highly suitable for applications in aerospace, medical, and acoustic stealth industries.

Design of a Morphing Wing-tip [PDF]
An initial design of a morphing wing-tip for a Regional Jet aircraft is developed and evaluated. The adaptive wing-tip concept is based upon a chiral type internal structure, enabling controlled cant angle orientation, camber and twist throughout the ...

Bioinspired morphing wings for extended flight envelope and roll control of small drones. [PDF]
Small-winged drones can face highly varied aerodynamic requirements, such as high manoeuvrability for flight among obstacles and high wind resistance for constant ground speed against strong headwinds that cannot all be optimally addressed by a single ...

Comparison of Aerodynamic Characteristics of Morphing and Conventional Wings [PDF]
The present research investigates the advantages of a morphing versus a hinged flap. The morphing wing model is equipped with a morphing trailing edge, while the conventional wing has a hinged flap system.
