The Active Flexible Wing model undergoing tests in a wind tunnel
This multiple-exposure photograph shows the Active Flexible Wing model at several pitch positions. Key accomplishments of this program included single and multiple- mode flutter suppression, load alleviation and load control during rapid roll maneuvers, and multi-input/multi-output multiple function active controls tests above the open loop flutter boundary.
The Active Flexible Wing (AFW) program was initially a joint U.S. Air Force, NASA and Rockwell International effort to demonstrate the AFW concept. The AFW concept involves achieving vehicle weight savings through advantageous use of a flexible wing surface via active control applications

8"x6" Glass Mount
Wall mounted or free-standing, these black edged glass frames feature a smooth chamfered edge and a stylish black border (on back face of the glass). Manufactured from 4mm thick glass, Glass Mounts are a durable, professional way of displaying and protecting your prints. Your 8x6 print is slotted into the back of the frame so can easily be changed if needed.
Tempered Glass Mounts are ideal for wall display, plus the smaller sizes can also be used free-standing via an integral stand
Estimated Image Size (if not cropped) is 20.3cm x 15.2cm (8" x 6")
Estimated Product Size is 22.8cm x 17.7cm (9" x 7")
These are individually made so all sizes are approximate
Artwork printed orientated as per the preview above, with landscape (horizontal) orientation to match the source image.
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the Active Flexible Wing model undergoing rigorous tests in a wind tunnel. The multiple-exposure technique showcases the model at various pitch positions, highlighting the key accomplishments of this groundbreaking program. The Active Flexible Wing (AFW) project was an impressive collaboration between the U. S. Air Force, NASA, and Rockwell International. Its primary objective was to demonstrate the potential of utilizing a flexible wing surface through active control applications to achieve weight savings in vehicles. Through extensive experimentation and analysis, this research initiative achieved remarkable advancements in aerospace technology. Notable achievements included suppressing single and multiple-mode flutter, alleviating loads on the wing during rapid roll maneuvers, and conducting multi-input/multi-output multiple function active controls tests beyond the open loop flutter boundary. In this image, we witness scientists inspecting and studying every aspect of this revolutionary prototype aircraft within a controlled wind tunnel environment. The vibrant colors add depth to our understanding of fluid dynamics as airflow interacts with the aerodynamic structure. This photograph offers us a glimpse into cutting-edge aviation research that pushes boundaries and expands our knowledge of flight dynamics. It symbolizes human ingenuity combined with advanced technology working together to shape future possibilities in aerospace engineering.
