Adaptive Compliant Wing oleh Fouad Sabry

What Is Adaptive Compliant Wing

A wing known as an adaptive compliant wing is one that is pliable enough to allow for some features of its form to be altered while the aircraft is in motion. The advantages of having flexible wings are many. The operation of conventional flight control devices often involves the use of hinges, which may result in interruptions to the airflow, vortices, and even, in certain instances, separation of the airflow. These factors add to the drag that the airplane experiences, which in turn leads to decreased efficiency and increased expenses for fuel. Aerofoils that are flexible have the ability to alter aerodynamic forces while causing less disturbances to the flow of air. This results in reduced aerodynamic drag, which leads to increased fuel efficiency.
