NUMERICAL METHOD TO DETERMINE STRUCTURAL ELEMENT REDUCED STIFFNESS FOR DESIRED COMPOSITE WING STRUCTURES CONFIGURATIONS

S. Stammel¹, C. Bisagni¹; ¹Politecnico di Milano, Italy

This study aims to introduce a novel and simplified design method for morphing composites wing structures. Morphing composite structures will lead to an increase in efficiency and a decrease of structural weight and therefore in a reduction of the environmental impact of future aeronautical and space vehicles.
