A mechanics model in design of flexible nozzle with multiple movable hinge boundaries

In this paper, we propose a modified variational approach to predict the morphology of the flexible nozzle used in wind tunnel. Different from previous studies, the movements of the multiple hinges are considered as movable displacement boundary conditions during establishing the potential energy fu...
