Longitudinal Dynamics Response of M-Wing Morphing Aircraft

Article Preview

Abstract:

A simulation methodology suitable for morphing wing aircraft is presented, accounting for the changes in both inertial and aerodynamic properties. The aerodynamics was generated with vortex lattice method and solved concurrently with 6DOF nonlinear extended equations of motion. Due to the wing morphing, there are 4 additional forces and moments exhibiting in the extended equations of motion. The simulation mythology was applied to M-wing morphing aircraft, and the longitudinal dynamic response was analyzed with the wing morphing symmetrically. The results show that the additional forces and moments influence the flight dynamic considerably
