An aerodynamic structure and a method of boundary layer control for thickness and camber morphing of aerodynamic surfaces in the aerodynamic structure are disclosed. In one embodiment, smart material controlled slots are provided along chord length and span length of the aerodynamic surfaces and leading edges of moveable control surfaces. Further, fluid is distributed on the aerodynamic surfaces and the leading edges of moveable control surfaces through the provided smart material controlled slots to vary fluid thickness of a boundary layer such that free stream fluid paths are modified around the aerodynamic surfaces to achieve an apparent change in a camber and thickness.
