摘要
A type of skin structure which is made by a Circular Arc Corrugated Style Fiber Reinforced Composite （CACSFRC） is proposed to meet the requirements of the large and continuous deformation and high load capacity of a morphing wing skin. A mechanical model is developed to predict the tensile deformation properties and equiva- lent elastic modulus of the composite skin. Corrugated and plane skin samples are manufactured and tested. The theoretical analysis and tension tests show that CCSFRC skin has markedly much more tensile deforming capability than plane skin in the range of elasticity. The quantity of tensile deformation is in direct proportion to the number of ripples, and in inverse proportion to the cubic of ratio thickness, while the equivalent elastic modulus is in direct proportion to the cubic of ratio thickness approximately. Experiments prove that the predicted theoretical models are reliable and effective.
