    Abstract:

    Z-shaped morphing wings with variable cross section is a kind of variant wing, and the folded angle has important influence on the dynamic stability of the wing. This paper studied the vibration characteristics of the Z-shaped morphing wing for different folded angles through both finite element analysis and experiment. Firstly, the experimental prototype of the Z-shaped folding wing was designed and fabricated. And then, a finite element model of the prototype was established, and simulations for different folding angles were conducted to obtain the first five natural frequencies and modes of the wing. Furthermore, frequency sweep tests on the prototype wing were carried out to obtain frequency responses under transverse excitations, and thus to reveal the first five natural frequencies and modes experimentally. Comparison between finite element simulations and experimental results showed good agreement, which verified the dynamic model of the Z-shaped morphing wing. This study would provide a reference for the design of morphing wing.
