Abstract

Morphing wing structures can improve the aircraft performances thanks to the possibility to adapt the wing shape throughout the mission. In this paper, a multi-level multi-disciplinary optimization procedure has been applied to the design of a morphing Droop Nose device, in the framework of Clean Sky 2 REG-IADP AIR- GREEN 2 project. The procedure starts from the initial design requirements and achieves the design, manu¬facturing and testing of two experimental ground demonstrators for the assessment of the developed concept. The experimental tests enable the validation of the numerical results and demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed morphing technology.
