Abstract

Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part L: Journal of Materials: Design and Applications, Ahead of Print.
Morphing aircraft can improve aerodynamic performance by dynamically adjusting the effective angle of attack along the wingspan. A twisting morphing wing driven by a bistable composite helical structure is proposed, and its torsional deformation ...
