Aircraft morphing, especially in the case of the variable camber airfoil, has potential from the viewpoints of both fundamental aerodynamics and flight application. In the field of aerodynamics, the ...

A. Flow without flow separation and with flow separation. B. Pressure distribution trend without flow separation and with flow separation. To prevent aircraft stalls, engineers have long studied the ...

As the angle of attack is increased on a high-performance airfoil, a small amount of separation occurs near the leading edge. This separation causes the boundary layer to transition from laminar to ...
