Designing a Morphing Wing for Fixed-Wing UAVs By IJISRT

open access: yesInternational Journal of Innovative Science and Research Technology (IJISRT)
This project report details the original conceptualization, design, and analysis of a morphing wing structure for fixed-wing Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). Our approach incorporates an octahedron cell structure coupled with the application of shape memory alloys(SMAs) to facilitate controlled wing morphing.

Aerodynamic performances of twist morphing MAV wing / Noor Iswadi Ismail

open access: yes, 2015
Performing the biomimetic morphing method on a Micro Air Vehicle (MAV) wing is very challenging tasks due to the MAV wing size limitation, limited energy budgets, complicated morphing mechanism and complex aeroelastic interactions.
