This paper studies the aeroelastic behavior of a rectangular, cantilever wing equipped with the spanwise morphing trailing edge (SMTE) concept. The SMTE consists of multiple trailing edge flaps that allow controlling the spanwise camber distribution of a...

This paper presents an aeroelastic analysis of a polymorphing wing capable of active span extension and passive pitch variation. The wing is split into two segments: an inboard segment responsible for span extension/retraction and an outboard segment cap...
