Morphing Winglet Design for Aerodynamic Performance Optimization of the CRJ-700 Aircraft. Part 1 – Structural Design

This study aims to design a morphing winglet structure for the CRJ-700 regional transport aircraft. The morphing technology is applied on winglets to demonstrate a significant increase of the aerodynamic performance of aircraft. From the aerodynamic data of the LARCASE Virtual Research Simulator VRE...
