Further development of a variable camber morphing mechanism using the direct control airfoil geometry concept (2018)
Presentation / Conference
Loudon, K., Bouferrouk, A., Coleman, B., Hughes, F., Lewis, B., Parsons, B., …Yao, Y. (2018, July). Further development of a variable camber morphing mechanism using the direct control airfoil geometry concept. Paper presented at International Symposium of Sustainable Aviation, Rome, Italy

This paper reports on the design, manufacture and testing of an improved variable camber morphing wing mechanism following the study by Evans et al. (2016), who employed the so-called Direct Control Airfoil Geometry (DCAG) concept to actuate the trai...

Aeroacoustics investigation of a harmonically morphing trailing edge flap (2018)
Presentation / Conference
Abdessemed, C., Yao, Y., Bouferrouk, A., & Narayan, P. P. (2018, March). Aeroacoustics investigation of a harmonically morphing trailing edge flap. Paper presented at 53rd 3AF International Conference on Applied Aerodynamics, Salon de Provence, France

In this paper, an aeroacoustic study of a NACA 0012 airfoil fitted with a morphing Trailing Edge Flap (TEF) was performed at conditions of an Angle of Attack (AoA) = 4º, Reynolds number = 0.62×10^6 and Mach number = 0.11. A modified parametrization m... Read More about Aeroacoustics investigation of a harmonically morphing trailing edge flap.
