Optimization of a Morphing Wing Based on Coupled Aerodynamic and Structural Constraints
TL;DR: In this article, an aerodynamic shape optimization code coupled with a structural morphing model is used to obtain a set of optimal wing shapes for minimum drag at different flight speeds, based on changes in wing-planform shape and wing-section shape achieved by extending spars and telescopic ribs.

Performance based multidisciplinary design optimization of morphing aircraft
TL;DR: In this article, a multidisciplinary design optimization (MDO) framework is proposed for conceptual design and analysis of new aircraft configurations, including the capability to analyze and quantify the effect of morphing wing solutions on aircraft performance.

Aero-Structural Optimization and Performance Evaluation of a Morphing Wing with Variable Span and Camber
TL;DR: In this paper, an aerodynamic analysis of a telescoping wing with a conformal camber morphing capability is presented, which is based on a nonuniform thickness distribution along the chord of a wing shell section that deforms from a symmetrical airfoil shape into a cambered shape under actuation.

Non-linear aeroelastic analysis in the time domain of high-aspect-ratio wings: Effect of chord and taper-ratio variation
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of geometric nonlinearities on the aeroelastic performance of high-aspect-ratio wings have been evaluated using numerical and experimental data, and the non-linear static aero-elastic equilibrium solutions are compared in terms of drag polar, root bending moment and natural frequencies.
