“…However, in the computational framework developed during the CHANGE project, a RANS solver was already made available, so it was used without further effort. Brief explanation regarding the RANS solver used in the CHANGE project can be found in a publication authored by CHANGE project partners (Ciarella et al, 2015). In the publication, a comparison between drag computations of a low-fidelity analysis (using VLM method) and high-fidelity analysis (using RANS solver) is briefly discussed.…”

“…In comparison with standard wing designs, the advantages of morphing wing are numerous. It can help optimize the lift-to-drag ratio of the wing during both high-and low-speed cruise (Jha and Kudva 2004;Coutu et al 2009), improve the maneuverability of the plane , expand the flight envelope (Ciarella et al 2015), reduce parasite drag, reduce vibration and flutter (Wilson 2002;Thill et al 2008;Sabri and Meguid 2011), and gain control of the local aerodynamic condition (Stanewsky 2001).…”

“…Much of the research in these programmes was focused on individual non-integrated morphing, actuation, or sensing concepts. These programmes focused on topics such as, but not limited to, morphing using compliant mechanisms [7], span and chord morphing mechanisms [8], or aircraft sensing methods [9]. Only occasionally did hardware demonstrators contain multiple actuation or sensing concepts.…”
