Development and Experimental Study of a Seamless Morphing Trailing Edge Flap Equipped with an Elephant Trunk Actuation Mechanism

Following the promising performance of the seamless morphing trailing edge (SMTE) flap and its internal actuation system, the elephant trunk mechanism (ETM), investigated through aerodynamic and structural analyses, this study presents an experimental analysis of the SMTE flap equipped with an eleph...
