Morphing wing application on Hydra Technologies UAS-S4 (2017)
Presentation / Conference
Segui, M., Sugar-Gabor, O., Koreanschi, A., & Botez, R. (2017, February). Morphing wing application on Hydra Technologies UAS-S4. Presented at IASTED Modelling, Identification and Control 2017 Conference, Innsbruck, Austria

This paper presents the aerodynamic results of a morphing wing study performed on the UAS S4 Éhecatl from Hydra Technologies. Only the cruise phase of the aircraft was considered (constant altitude and constant speed). The difference, from an aerodyn...

In this paper, an ‘in-house’ genetic algorithm is described and applied to an optimization problem for improving the aerodynamic performances of an aircraft wing tip through upper surface morphing. The algorithm’s performances were studied from the c...

In the present paper, an ‘in-house’ genetic algorithm was numerically and experimentally validated. The genetic algorithm was applied to an optimization problem for improving the aerodynamic performances of an aircraft wing tip through upper surface...
