Abstract:
      A spreading experimental device was designed for folding wings. Loading and spreading experiments were carried out in different amount of powder and spreading time was measured. Simulation model of the folding wings was established and the loading of the model was determined with the experimental data. The simulation results showed that the additional mass caused by the loading cylinder barely impact on the spreading time; the experimental methods is feasible; the influence of simulated lift is significant, as the spreading time with the simulated lift is longer than without it by about20%.
