Towards the application of MOrphing MOvables in AEROstructures

Project description

Developing an active morphing winglet demonstrator

The European Airframe Integrated Technology Demonstrator (Airframe ITD) focusses on developing ecologically designed, high-performance, versatile and energy- and cost-efficient airframe technologies. The EU-funded AEROMO2 project aims to support this objective by developing an active morphing winglet demonstrator within the Airframe ITD. To achieve this, it will deliver the elements needed to industrialise morphing movable technologies. These elements include a comprehensive material behaviour characterisation and prediction method and a production method necessary to demonstrate the application of a novel pressurised cell actuation system. The project will contribute towards Europe’s goal to reduce CO2 emissions and noise levels produced by aircraft.

Objective

The framework of the project is to support the development of an active morphing winglet demonstrator within the Airframe ITD. The current project will deliver elements necessary for the future industrialisation of the technologies involved in morphing movables. These elements concern
(I)- a comprehensive material behaviour characterisation and prediction method, specific for the requirements coupled with this application, subsequently called ‘Part A’,
(II)- a production method necessary to demonstrate the application of a novel pressurised cell actuation system subsequently called ‘Part B’.
Both parts are complementary, though these will support two types of demontrators. The first part is meant to realise a large step towards qualification of the morphing technology on focussing on materials able to realise morphing defomation in an existing concept, while the second one focuses on a technology integrating all aspects related to morphing movables, around an innovative fluid based control system, named FAMoUS.

Programme(s)

Multi-annual funding programmes that define the EU’s priorities for research and innovation.

Topic(s)

Calls for proposals are divided into topics. A topic defines a specific subject or area for which applicants can submit proposals. The description of a topic comprises its specific scope and the expected impact of the funded project.

Funding Scheme

Funding scheme (or “Type of Action”) inside a programme with common features. It specifies: the scope of what is funded; the reimbursement rate; specific evaluation criteria to qualify for funding; and the use of simplified forms of costs like lump sums.
