The development of a reversible and finitely variable camber windsurf fin
… potential of the device. The benefits of using camber in the design of lifting sections for high lift and low drag are well known. Traditional variable camber lifting surfaces utilise leading and trailing edge flap technologies to vary the geometry (camber) of the cross-section. However, this …

Development of a Variable Camber Compliant Aircraft Tail using Structural Optimization
… airplane and the design and integration of a variable camber compliant tail. The morphing airplane was designed and manufactured to study the benefits of large planform changes and flight control morphing. Morphing capabilities of each wing consist of 8 in. wing extension and contraction, 40° …

Development of a design methodology for transport aircraft variable camber flaps suitable for cruise and low-speed operations
… development of a generic design methodology for variable camber flap systems for transport aircraft, intended to be used for cruise and low-speed operations. The methodology was structured after several revisions were performed on conventional high-lift device design methodologies for existing …

Aerodynamic and Electromechanical Design, Modeling and Implementation Of Piezocomposite Airfoils
… material are proposed to form two types of variable-camber aerodynamic surfaces. The first concept, a simply-supported thin bimorph airfoil, can take advantage of aerodynamic loads to reduce control input moments and increase control effectiveness. The structural boundary conditions of the …

Analysis of High Angle of Attack Maneuvers to Enhance Understanding of the Aerodynamics of Perching
… envelope during these types of motions variable camber is studied for both types of maneuvers using the 2D DVM and in both cases the initial results show that variable camber has the potential to positively influence the boundaries of the flight envelope during a perching maneuver.

Tire Footprint Analysis Based on Image Processing Techniques
… this test rig allows providing the tire with variable camber angles and slip ratios. For the rolling tire, a digital camera GoPro has been used under a glass panel to record the tread pattern in detail when the tire passes over it during the test, to represent the footprint for a high slip …
