Design of A Trans-Media Aircraft Morphing Wing Structure

The trans-media aircraft refers to a new concept special aircraft that can both fly through the air and dive underwater, which has a broad prospect of military application. To make sure the aircraft can move smoothly in both media with low resistance, the design of the aircraft should pay attention to the needs of both air flying and underwater prowling in terms of shape and structure. This paper designs a kind of morphing wing, borrowing from bionics design philosophy, which could fold when the aircraft is diving underwater and then unfold when it is flying through the air.
