Aeroelastic tailoring of aeroplane wings using composite laminates

This thesis concerns aeroelastic tailoring, i. e. the discipline that studies the induced deformation of an aeronautical structure, such as wings, tails, or vertical fins, in order to improve a particular aeroelastic performance. Aeroelastic tailoring is achieved here via passive actuation, obtained...
