Loeven, G.J.A. (author), Bijl, H. (author) Due to manufacturing tolerances, the airfoil of a wing after production is never exactly the same as the designed airfoil. Also during operation the geometry may change due to aerodynamic loading, icing or wear of the construction. The geometry can, therefore, be treated as uncertain. Uncertainties in the geometry of an airfoil are expected to...
