This work aims to understand the changes in the loads and structural sizing processes due to the increased flexibility of the wing. It uses a recent and high aspect ratio aircraft as a study case. Computational Fluid Dynamics and nonlinear Finite Elements Method analyses are integrated employed in this study.
