An aircraft airfoil having a wave assembly. The airfoil may include a leading edge, a trailing edge position opposite the leading edge, a pressure side extending between the leading edge and the trailing edge, and a suction side extending between the leading edge and the trailing edge. The suction side may be positioned opposite the pressure side. The airfoil may also include a wave assembly positioned on the suction side of the body. The wave assembly may include at least one leading edge flexural actuator positioned adjacent the leading edge of the body. The wave assembly may also include a flexible member having a first end portion affixed to the at least one leading edge flexural actuator, and a second end portion positioned opposite the first end portion, and adjacent the trailing edge of the body.
