Dynamic stability of a rotary oscillating cantilever beam is presented in this study. Using the stretch deformation instead of the conventional axial deformation, three linear partial differential equations are derived from Hamilton's principle and transformed into dimensionless forms. Stability diagrams of the first order approximate solutions are obtained by using the multiple scale perturbation method. The stability diagrams show that relatively large unstable regions exist near the combination of the first chordwise bending natural frequency and the first stretch natural frequency. This result is verified by using the generalized-${\alpha}$ method.

A structure which is accelerated in the chordwise direction induces variation of the bending stiffness due to inertia force. Thus, the characteristic of natural vibration is also changed. This paper presents a modeling method for the vibration analysis of translationally accelerated cantilever plates. The dependence of natural frequencies and modes on the acceleration changes of the plate is investigated. Particularly, a natural frequency loci veering is observed and discussed in the present study.

Morphing wing which has a configuration optimized to flight speed and condition is faced to a lot of barriers to be overcome such as actuator technique, structural mechanization technique, flexible skin material, control law, and so on. As the first step for developing a morphing wing with rapid response, we designed and fabricated the morphing airfoil using a SMA(shape memory alloy) wire actuator and torsional bias springs. The design concept of the morphing airfoil was verified through operation test. The measured results show that the flap deflects smoothly and fast.
