Abstract

The biological flight involves the movement of a wing (lift surface) in viscous medium and it generates lift and resistance for going forward through friction compared to Reynolds number. The morphing concept is generally based on optimizing the aerodynamic form during the mission so it can execute a maneuver flight. This article desires a short passage through the mathematical aspect in 2D of the morphing profile concept.
