![]() The general equations developed for the unsteady lift and load distribution are evaluated analytically for a morphing airfoil, which is defined here by two quadratic curves with arbitrary coefficients. ![]() The influence of transient and sinusoidal airfoil deformations on the airfoil load distribution is examined. The concept of separating the steady and damping terms in the camberline boundary condition is introduced. The wake-effect terms are calculated using either the Wagner or Theodorsen function, depending on the desired camberline deformation. ![]() The von Karman and Sears approach is employed along with Neumark’s method for the unsteady load distribution. ![]() The unsteady thin airfoil theory of von Karman and Sears is extended to analyze the aerodynamic characteristics of a deforming airfoil. ![]()
