Papers
Technology Integration for Active Poly-Morphing Winglets Development
Narcis M. Ursache,Tomas Melin,Askin T. Isikveren,Michael I. Friswell +3 more
- 01 Jan 2008
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the preparation of a working physical mock-up wingtip device with morphing functionality, which is used to demonstrate material compliance, mechanism kinematics and perform bandwidth experimentation.
Determinate structures for wing camber control
D Baker,Michael I. Friswell +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a truss structure for the purpose of creating a continuously variable camber trailing edge device for an aircraft wing is presented, where a limited number of actuators with limited strain capabilities are located within the structure in order to achieve a target deflected shape starting from an initially symmetric profile.
Modelling and Applications of Thermally Induced Multistable Composites with Piecewise Variation of Lay-up in the Planform
F Mattioni,Paul M. Weaver,Michael I. Friswell,Kevin D Potter +3 more
- 23 Apr 2007
TL;DR: In this article, thermally induced bistable composites are considered for the realisation of morphing structures, and a model is developed in order to extend previous models that could only take into account free boundary conditions.

A second-moment approach for direct probabilistic model updating in structural dynamics
TL;DR: In this article, a random matrix approach is proposed and closed-form expressions are derived for the mean matrix and the covariance matrix of the updated stiffness matrix of a structural dynamic system.

Condition Monitoring of Rotor Using Active Magnetic Actuator
Jerzy T. Sawicki,Michael I. Friswell,Alexander H. Pesch,Adam C. Wroblewski +3 more
- 01 Jan 2008
TL;DR: In this article, it has been demonstrated that the crack-induced changes in the rotor dynamic behavior produce unique vibration signatures, which are the result of the coexistence of a parametric excitation term and different frequencies present in the system.
