The structural design process of an adaptive wing trailing edge (ATED) was addressed in compliance with the demanding requirements posed by the implementation of the architecture on large aeroplanes. Fast and reliable elementary methods combined with rational design criteria were adopted in order to preliminarily define ATED box geometry, structural properties, and the general configuration of the embedded mechanisms enabling box morphing under the action of aerodynamic loads. Aeroelastic stability issues were duly taken in account in order to safely assess inertial and stiffness distributions of the primary structure as well as to provide requirements for the actuation system harmonics. Results and general guidelines coming from the preliminary design were then converted into detailed drawings of each box component. Implemented solutions were based on designer’s industrial experience and were mainly oriented to increase the structural robustness of the device, to minimize its manufacturing costs, and to simplify assembly and maintenance procedures. The static robustness of the executive layout was verified by means of linear and nonlinear stress analyses based on advanced FE models; dynamic aeroelastic behaviour of the stress-checked structure was finally investigated by means of rational analyses based on theoretical mode association.
