A High-Lift Optimization Methodology for the Design of Leading and Trailing Edges on Morphing Wings

A High-Lift Optimization Methodology for the Design of Leading and Trailing Edges on Morphing Wings

Morphing offers an attractive alternative compared to conventional hinged, multi-element high lift devices. In the present work, morphed shapes of a NACA 64A010 airfoil are optimized for maximum lift characteristics. Deformed shapes of the leading and trailing edge are represented through Bezier cur...
