Cover Story: The high-performance morphing wings have long inspired the aerospace industry to mimic natural flyers. However, the practical implementation of morphing wings brings its fair share of challenges, including numerical modeling. Large and rapid deformations of a wing moving at high speeds strongly influence the aerodynamic performance; this has contributed to the added complexity of morphing wings’ aerodynamic analysis. Nevertheless, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFDs) allows for the study of such complex mechanisms. This study investigates the flow response to bioinspired wing-morphing flap near-stall angles with the use of high-fidelity turbulence modeling and dynamic mesh methods to uncover the dynamic effects arising from the transient deformation.
