Elastomer-based skins for morphing aircraft applications: Effect of biaxial strain rates and prestretch

There is an emerging trend in the morphing aircraft research where two or more morphing degrees of freedom are used on a wing which leads to the concept of polymorphing. The skin of the morphing wing must be flexible in the morphing direction but stiff in other directions to withstand the aerodynami...
