摘要

Seamless transition structures can adapt their shapes to seal the gaps between the morphing control surface and the fixed part of the wing. It contributes greatly to the turbulence suppression, noise reduction and the increase of the wing lift-drag ratio. This paper concisely outlines the structural solutions for the transition segments, with particular emphasis on elucidating their design characteristics and limitations. At last, the related challenges are discussed, providing reference for the further research of wing seamless transition technology.
