title = "Optimization of blended bistable laminate for morphing flap",
abstract = "Multistable composite structures offer a potential platform for the development of morphing flight vehicles. The recent advance in tow-placement technology has enabled the blending of multistable sections with major structural components thereby enhancing the overall structural performance of the flight vehicle. The use of ant colony systems as an optimization concept has been implemented by incorporating the feedback from the finite element analysis on a blended bistable laminate for a morphing flap application.",
