The wing's shape can be changed at a rate of 30° per second, which is ideal for gust load alleviation. The development of the adaptive compliant wing is being sponsored by the U.S. Air Force Research Laboratory.
This innovation enables the wing to make dynamic changes in response to changing environmental conditions, such as gust loads, at a rate of 30° per second. The adaptive compliant wing is being researched and developed with support from the U.S. Air Force Research Laboratory.
