A state-space aeroelastic formulation for the study of morphing wings is presented. It is based on an Unsteady Lifting-Line theory model for the prediction of the aerodynamic loads, which is coupled with a structural dynamics model to obtain a model suitable for aeroelastic stability analysis and aeroservoelastic applications.
