The focus of this study is to evaluate the aeroelastic performance and control of adaptive wings. Ailerons and flaps have been designed and implemented into three-dimensional wings for comparison with adaptive structures and active aerodynamic surface control methods. The adaptive structures concept, the experimental setup and the control design are presented. The wind-tunnel tests of the wing models are presented for the open- and closed-loop systems. The wind tunnel testing has allowed for quantifying the effectiveness of the piezoelectric vibration control of the wings, and also provided performance data for comparison. with conventional aerodynamic control surfaces. The results indicate that a wing utilizing skins as active structural elements with embedded piezoelectric actuators can be effectively used to improve the aeroelastic response of aeronautical components. It was also observed that the control authority of adaptive wings is much greater than wings using conventional aerodynamic control surfaces.
