title = "Multidisciplinary design optimization of an active nonplanar polymorphing wing",
abstract = "Multidisciplinary Design Optimization (MDO) has been performed on the retrofitting of a morphing wing system to an existing conventionally designed commercial passenger jet. Refined studies have been undertaken in order to confirm initial findings using high end, low fidelity aerostructural analysis together with a full engine model and integrated operational performance algorithm. Performance in off-design conditions has also been investigated in order to determine whether such benefits that have been previously demonstrated with fixed winglets could be maintained throughout the entire flight envelope with morphing technology. Preliminary results indicate a specific air range performance increase of approximately 4-5% over that of fixed winglets through all flight phases within the aircraft range of operation including off-design conditions.",
