Aerodynamic characteristics of a novel catapult launched morphing tandem-wing unmanned aerial vehicle
A novel morphing unmanned aerial vehicle with tandem-wing configuration could fold into a tubular catapult and deploy the four airfoils after launching. Because of the rapid deploying process, the aerodynamic characteristics will become largely different. Numerically investigating the aerodynamic ch...
