Future planes can be winding like birds

Researchers are aiming to create a new generation of aircraft that can change the shape of a fly as a bird to maximize the optimal and best performance of the flight.

This is a project of the University of Dayton (USA). NASA and the US Department of Defense have also invested to develop this idea. In order to carry out the project, engineers are working to find new materials suitable for changing the shape of the aircraft while flying.

The research focused on the 'skin' elasticity of the wings, the devices that helped the fuselage to bend in flight and the crank wings to withstand large frictional forces.

In the meantime, a separate research program on the 'two-way' wing aircraft will be piloted this year.
