Keywords: morphing wing aircraft, dynamics of multi-body systems, modeling, numerical simulation, asymmetric morphing

The purpose of this paper is employing the Dynamics of Multi-body Systems Theory to build up the muti-mode dynamic model of morphing wing aircraft considering as muti-rigid-body. The characteristics of dynamic responses are analyzed utilizing simulation technique, especially for the asymmetry morphing process.
