Aerodynamic Performance Estimation of Camber Morphing Airfoils for Small Unmanned Aerial Vehicle

This paper proposes a methodology to harvest the benefits of camber morphing airfoils for small unmanned aerial vehicle (SUAV) applications. Camber morphing using discrete elements was used to morph the base airfoil, which was split into two, three, and four elements, respectively, to achieve new co...
