Two-way shape memory effect(TWSME) under residual stresses are considered in the present study. The structure using two-way shape memory effect concept returns to its initial shape by increasing or decreasing temperature under the initially given residual stress. In the present study, we use a thermo-mechanical constitutive equation of SMA and laminated composite beam are considered as simple morphing structural components which are based on large deformable 2D composite beam theory. Numerical results of fully coupled SMA-composite structures are presented.

This work is focused on a parametric numerical study of the barrier's bar inclination shelter effect in crosswind scenario. The parametric study combines mesh morphing and design of experiments in automated manner. Radial Basis Functions (RBF) method is used for mesh morphing and Ansys Workbench is used as an automation platform. Wind barrier consists of five bars where each bar angle is parameterized. Design points are defined using the design of experiments (DOE) technique to accurately represent the entire design space. Three-dimensional RANS numerical simulation was utilized with commercial software Ansys Fluent 14.5. In addition to the numerical study, experimental measurement of the aerodynamic forces acting on a vehicle is performed in order to define the critical wind disturbance scenario. The wind barrier optimization method combines morphing, an advanced CFD solver, high performance computing, and process automaters. The goal is to present a parametric aerodynamic simulation methodology for the wind barrier shelter that integrates accuracy and an extended design space in an automated manner. In addition, goal driven optimization is conducted for the most influential parameters for the wind barrier shelter.

In this paper, the activities carried out within the EU funded Clean Sky Joint Technology Initiative (JTI GRA) Project and aimed at developing a morphing flap, are illustrated. The reference device is a regional aircraft single slotted flap, enhanced with deforming capabilities to obtain improved hyper-lift performance. The design started with the identification of the internal architecture, intended to allow camber variations. A concentrated-hinge architecture was selected, for its ability to fit different curvatures and for the possibility of easily realizing an "armadillo-like" configuration, then avoiding the use of a complicate deformable skin. The flap layout is made of segmented ribs, elastically hinged each other and span-wise connected by conventional spars. Relative rotations of the rib elements are forced by SMA structural actuators, i.e., cooperating in the external loads absorption. Super-elastic SMA are used to make up recovery elastic elements, necessary to regain the original shape after activation. These further elements in turn contribute to the overall flap rigidity. After assessing the hinge number and the size of the SMA active and passive elements, the advanced design phase was dealt with. It was aimed at solving manufacturing issues and producing the executive drawings. The realized demonstrator was finally tested in lab conditions to prove its functionality in terms of whether target shape actuation or attained shape preservation under loads. On the basis of the numerical results and the experimental outcomes, precious hints were obtained for further developments of the concept.

An original sensor system based on Fiber Bragg Gratings (FBG) for the strain monitoring of an adaptive wing element is presented in this paper. One of the main aims of the SARISTU project is in fact to measure the shape of a deformable wing for performance optimization. In detail, an Adaptive Trailing Edge (ATE) is monitored chord- and span-wise in order to estimate the deviation between the actual and the desired shape and, then, to allow attaining a prediction of the real aerodynamic behavior with respect to the expected one. The integration of a sensor system is not trivial: it has to fit inside the available room and to comply with the primary issue of the FBG protection. Moreover, dealing with morphing structures, large deformations are expected and a certain modulation is necessary to keep the measured strain inside the permissible measure range. In what follows, the mathematical model of an original FBG-based structural sensor system is presented, designed to evaluate the chord-wise strain of an Adaptive Trailing Edge device. Numerical and experimental results are compared, using a proof-of-concept setup. Further investigations aimed at improving the sensor capabilities, were finally addressed. The elasticity of the sensor structure was exploited to enlarge both the measurement and the linearity range. An optimisation process was then implemented to find out an optimal thickness distribution of the sensor system in order to alleviate the strain level within the referred component.

This paper is concerned with the dynamics of hyperelastic solids and structures. We seek for a smart control actuation that produces a desired (prescribed) displacement field in the presence of transient imposed forces. In the literature, this problem is denoted as displacement tracking, or also as shape morphing problem. One talks about shape control, when the displacements to be tracked do vanish. In the present paper, it is assumed that the control actuation is provided by imposed eigenstrains, e.g., by the electric field in piezoelectric actuators, or by thermal actuators, or via analogous physical effects, such as magneto-striction or pre-stress. Structures with a controlled eigenstrain-type actuation belong to the class of smart structures. The action of the eigenstrains can be conveniently characterized by actuation stresses. Our theoretical derivations are performed in the framework of the theory of small incremental dynamic deformations superimposed upon a statically pre-deformed configuration of a hyperelastic solid or structure. We particularly ask for a distribution of incremental actuation stresses, such that the incremental displacements follow exactly a prescribed trajectory field, despite the imposed incremental forces are present. An exact solution of this problem is presented under the assumption that the actuation stresses can be tailored freely and applied everywhere within the body. Extending a Neumann-type solution strategy, it is shown that the actuation stresses due to the distributed control eigenstrains must satisfy certain quasi-static equilibrium conditions, where auxiliary body-forces and auxiliary surface tractions are to be taken into account. The latter auxiliary loading can be directly computed from the imposed forces and from the desired displacement field to be tracked. Hence, despite the problem is a dynamic one, a straightforward computation of proper actuator distributions can be obtained in the framework of quasi-static equilibrium conditions. Necessary conditions for the functioning of this concept are presented. Particularly, it must be required that the intermediate configuration is infinitesimally superstable. Previous results of our group for the case of shape control and displacement tracking in linear elastic structures are included as special cases. The high potential of the solution is demonstrated via Finite Element computations for an irregularly shaped four-corner plate in a state of plain strain.

쌍안정 장치는 서로 다른 두 가지 상태에서 안정성을 갖는 시스템이며, 구동에 있어 에너지 효율 측면에서 이득을 얻을 수 있다. 이러한 쌍안정 장치는 다양한 방법을 통해 구현되며, 전개형 구조물, 스위치 시스템 그리고 파지 로봇 등, 주된 동작이 두 종류로 구분되는 모핑 시스템에 적용될 수 있다. 하지만 기존 장치들의 복잡성과 구조적 제한 때문에, 링크 구조물처럼 회전하는 구조를 포함하는 모핑 시스템을 구현하는 것은 어려움이 존재한다. 본 연구에서는 원통형 영구자석을 이용하여 회전운동에 있어 쌍안정성을 갖는 장치를 구현하는 방법이 제안된다. 원통형 영구자석의 전자석 모델을 도입하여 자기장과 자기력을 도출했으며, 이를 이용하여 원통형 영구자석을 포함하는 두 링크 사이의 힘 관계를 추정했다. 대칭 쌍안정성을 위한 원통형 영구자석의 배열을 선정했으며, 제안하는 쌍안정 장치를 회전 조인트로 연결된 링크 구조물에 적용하여 외부 토크에 대한 안정성을 실험을 통해 확인하였다.

만화의 역사에 있어서, 불과 최근 몇 년 전 까지는 인쇄술을 기본으로 하는 출판문화의 시대였다. 미디어 평론가인 마샬 맥루한은 20세기의 만화가 아직도 인쇄, 혹은 조잡한 목판의 성격을 갖고 있다고 말했다. 그러나 1980년대에 들어와서는 '영상만화, CD- ROM 만화, 클릭 만화 등이 출현하여 전통적인 출판만화와는 다른 다양한 형태의 만화가 등장하였다. 출판 외 형식으로 만화를 제작 배포 할 수 있는 전자기기와 인터넷이 발전 대중화 되면서 이러한 현상은 다각화.가속화 되었다. 이처럼 웹툰의 다양한 형식 발전을 기저로 본 연구는 웹툰에 나타난 표현과 인식의 세로영역으로의 확장 현상에 대하여 '수직적 이미지 연상', '종형(縱形) 파노라마', '공간모핑(morphing)'이라는 개념을 제시할 것이다. 또한 전위적이고 역동적인 작품으로 주목받고 있는 강도하의 <로맨스 킬러>, <큐브릭>을 텍스트로 살펴보고 그 의미를 분석할 것이다. 강도하는 2009년, 부천만화정보센터가 한국의 만화 전문가들로부터 설문한 '오늘의 우리 만화가 20인'에 선정되는 등 웹툰시대의 초기부터 현재에 이르기 까지 가장 실험적이고 영향력 있는 웹툰 작가로 인정받고 있으며 이러한 맥락에서 각각 2007년, 2009년에 발표된 그의 두 작품을 분석해 보는 것은 웹툰의 표현과 구조에 대해 보다 다각화된 시점에서의 이해를 도모하고 공간 표현의 확장 예술로서 웹툰의 가치를 조명하는데에 도움이 될 것이다.
