PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide change of the shape of a wing optimized not to incur an undesirable weight penalty and not to limit the shape-altering capability.SOLUTION: A wing 100 comprises a leading edge portion 104, a central portion 106, and a trailing edge portion 108 comprising a morphing beam 102. A method for constructing the wing comprises: forming the leading edge portion of the wing from a rigid structure; forming an outer surface of the central portion of the wing from an elastic structure; and forming the trailing edge portion of the wing from the morphing beam. A method for changing the shape of the wing comprises: coupling the trailing edge portion comprising the morphing beam to the elastic central portion of the wing, the morphing beam comprising a first portion 112 made of smart material and a second portion 114 made of elastic material; and actuating the smart material in the first portion of the morphing beam to change the shape of the elastic central portion of the wing and the elastic material of the morphing beam.
【課題】望ましくない重量ペナルティを負わず、形状変化機能を制限しない、最適化された翼形状の変化を提案する。【解決手段】前縁部104と、中央部106と、変形梁102を備えた後縁部108と、を具備する翼100、剛性構造から翼の前縁部を形成することと、弾性構造から翼の中央部の外面を形成することと、変形梁から翼の後縁部を形成することと、を含む、翼を構成する方法、及び、翼の形状を変化させる方法であって、スマートマテリアルで形成された第1の部分112と弾性材料で形成された第2の部分114とを有する変形梁を具備した後縁部を、翼の弾性中央部に連結させることと、翼の弾性中央部及び変形梁の弾性材料の形状を変化させるために、変形梁の第1の部分においてスマートマテリアルを駆動することと、を含む方法による。【選択図】図1B
