Abstract: Aircraft performance can be improved using morphing wing technologies, in which the wing can be deployed and folded under flight conditions, providing a wide flight envelope, good fuel efficiency, and reducing the space ...

Abstract: High aspect ratio wings are potential candidates for use in atmospheric satellites and civil aircraft as they exhibit a low induced drag, which can reduce the fuel consumption. Owing to their slender and light weight ...

Abstract: Absolute nodal coordinate formulation (ANCF) is a nonincremental nonlinear finite element procedure that has been successfully applied to the large deformation analysis of multibody systems for more than two decades. ...

Abstract: Next-generation civil aircraft and atmospheric satellites will have high-aspect-ratio wings. Such a design necessitates successive analysis of static, frequency, and time-domain dynamic responses based on a three-dimensional ...

Abstract: Conventional multifidelity modeling for slender structures such as folding-wing aircraft and offshore wind turbines does not allow the generation of multiple fidelity models that consistently use the same external force ...

Abstract: Owing to their low induced drag, high-aspect-ratio wings are often applied to aircraft, particularly high-altitude long-endurance (HALE) aircraft. An analytical method that considers geometrical nonlinearity is necessary ...
