Predicting Aerodynamic Loads on Highly Flexible Membrane Wings

Creator:

Carpenter, Trenton James

Abstract:

Through passive adaptation to incidental flow, flexible aerodynamic surfaces exploit effects of increased lift, delayed stall and disturbance rejection. Wings of birds, bats, and insects exhibit these passive effects, and at the same time through the use of structural state feedback sensed from the loads on the wing, active control...
