Performance Comparison between Optimised Camber and Span for a Morphing Wing

Performance Comparison between Optimised Camber and Span for a Morphing Wing

Morphing technology offers a strategy to modify the wing geometry, and the wing planform and cross-sectional parameters can be optimised to the flight conditions. This paper presents an investigation into the effect of span and camber morphing on the mission performance of a 25-kg UAV, with a straig...
