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...

Journal Article
Abdessemed, C., Yao, Y., Bouferrouk, A., & Narayan, P. P. (2018). Morphing airfoils analysis using dynamic meshing. International Journal of Numerical Methods for Heat and Fluid Flow, 28(5), 1117-1133. https://doi.org/10.1108/HFF-06-2017-0261

© 2018, Emerald Publishing Limited. Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to use dynamic meshing to perform CFD analyses of a NACA 0012 airfoil fitted with a morphing trailing edge (TE) flap when it undergoes static and time-dependent morphing. The s... Read More about Morphing airfoils analysis using dynamic meshing.
