AB - The stereotypical separation control method is the vortex generator which, as a passivedevice, produces an influence on the flow at all times. We investigate the production ofa deployable compliant separation control system that can be formed from the continuoussurface of an aerofoil when and where required, and return to normal conditions whennot required. The limitations in the development of a 3D finite geometry change froma surface are investigated and a systematic search of the design space is conducted toidentify the ideal material parameters. Based on these results a novel method of producinga spatially finite morph is proposed through the use of a 2D lattice structure. Deficienciesare identified with the use of an objective function which reduces geometric error, basedon prior knowledge of a suitable geometry, for flow within the boundary layer and analternative objective is proposed.
