Transient Dynamic System Behavior of Pressure Actuated Cellular Structures in a Morphing Wing

High aspect ratio aircraft have a significantly reduced induced drag, but have only limited installation space for control surfaces near the wingtip. This paper describes a multidisciplinary design methodology for a morphing aileron that is based on pressure-actuated cellular structures (PACS). The...
