Flexible Skin Design for Shear Morphing Wings by Re Design is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This document summarizes the design of a flexible skin for a shear morphing wing. The skin consists of a cellular substructure covered with a pre-tensioned facesheet. Previous designs used straight aluminum ribbons that required high actuation forces and had a complex manufacturing process. The new design aims to reduce actuation forces and manufacturing complexity. It examines using curved strands in the substructure to reduce peak strains from 3.3% to 1.2%, lowering actuation forces by 30%, while preventi
