Degree Pursued
Master of Applied Science Aerospace Engineering Candidate
Graduate Research Project
Paul Meyran’s research project aims to design a morphing winglet structure to optimize the performance of a regional transport aircraft. As this project falls within the context green aircraft development, innovation and new technologies will enable this project to function. His project covers many aspects: the analysis of aerodynamic loads based on CFD simulations, the analysis of inertial loads and weight, the design of the internal winglet structure and its integration into the winglet, the design of a mechanism allowing to vary the winglet orientation, the optimization of the structure, the reliability and the control linked to the mechanism and the final analysis of the performances during the integration of the structure in the winglet.
