Development of a New Span-Morphing Wing Core Design
This paper presents a new design for the core of a span-morphing unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) wing that increases the spanwise length of the wing by fifty percent. The purpose of morphing the wingspan is to increase lift and fuel efficiency during extension, to increase maneuverability during contr...
