MIT, NASA engineers develop morphing wing

Green Car Congress

The wing can morph to control the plane’s flight, and could provide a significant boost in aircraft production, flight, and maintenance efficiency, the researchers say. By way of comparison, rubber has a density of about 1,500 kilograms per cubic meter. Wing is assembled from hundreds of identical subunits. kilograms per cubic meter.
