An auxetic honeycomb that changes shape using piezo-electric actuators and other sensors embedded in each of the structure's cells could enable lightweight, power-efficient flexing control surfaces ...
To maximize a plane's efficiency over a broader range of flight speeds, Penn State engineers have developed a concept for morphing airplane wings that change shape like a bird's and are covered with a ...
“The morphing wing can change its shape during flight, allowing it to adapt optimally to different flight conditions," explains project leader Martin Radestock from the DLR Institute of Lightweight ...
NextGen Aeronautics is to build a small unmanned air vehicle able to change shape in flight under the next phase of the US Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency’s (DARPA) morphing aircraft ...
German Aerospace Center engineers have tested flap-less morphing wings on the Proteus aircraft, advancing Hyperelastic Trailing Edge Morphing technology. The system uses fiber-reinforced composites ...
