Control of a swept wing tailless aircraft through wing morphing
, 2007 Inspired by flight in nature, work done by Lippisch, the Hortens, and Northrop offered insight to achieving the efficiency of bird flight with swept-wing tailless aircraft. Tailless designs must incorporate aerodynamic compromises for control, which have

SMA actuators for morphing wings
Physics Procedia, 2010 AbstractAn experimental morphing laminar wing was developed to prove the feasibility of aircraft fuel consumption reduction through enhancement of the laminar flow regime over the wing extrados. The morphing wing prototype designed for subsonic cruise flight conditions (Mach 0.2…0.3; angle of attack −1…+2∘), combines three principal subsystems: (1 ...

Basal complex: a smart wing component for automatic shape morphing
Communications Biology, 2023 Insect wings are adaptive structures that automatically respond to flight forces, surpassing even cutting-edge engineering shape-morphing systems. A widely accepted but not yet explicitly tested hypothesis is that a 3D component in the wing’s proximal ...
