Thermally induced multi-stable composites for morphing aircraft applications
This research focuses on the realisation of 'shape-adaptable' systems through unsymmetrical laminates. The residual stress field which is built-into this type of laminates, is used to obtain panels with two or more equilibrium states. Such systems provide a possible solution for the realis...
