dc.description.abstractThis paper provides an overview of the work conducted as part of the Cranfield BEAmReduction and Dynamic Scaling (BeaRDS ) programme, which aims to develop a methodologyfor designing, manufacturing and testing of a dynamically scaled High Aspect Ratio (HAR)Wing inside Cranfield 8’x6’ wind tunnel. The aim of this paper is to develop a methodologythat adopts scaling laws to allow experimental testing of a conceptual flexible-wing planformas part of the design process. Based on the Buckinghamπtheorem, a set of scaling lawsare determined that enable the relationship between a full-scale and sub-scale model. Thedynamically sub-scaled model is manufactured as a combination of spar, skin, and addedmass representing the stiffness, aerodynamic profile, and aeroelastic behaviour respectively.The spar was manufactured as a cross-sectional shape using Aluminium material, while theskin was manufactured using PolyJet technology. Compromises due to the manufacturingprocess are outlined and lessons learned during the development of the sub-scaled model arehighlighted.en_UK
