1) Finite wing aerodynamics is more complex than airfoil aerodynamics due to wingtip vortices which induce downwash and reduce angle of attack, leading to increased induced drag.
2) Elliptical wings have minimum induced drag but high manufacturing cost, while rectangular and tapered wings have higher induced drag but lower manufacturing cost.
3) Wing planform parameters like aspect ratio, taper ratio, and sweep angle affect 3D aerodynamics.

Elliptical Wing Minimum Induced Drag Constant Induced AoA along spanwise direction Elliptical lift distribution along spanwise direction High Manufacturing Cost Rectangular Wing Induced Drag not minimum Variable induced AoA along spanwise direction Low Manufacturing Cost Tapered Wing Induced Drag are close to minimum (that of elliptical wing) Variable induced AoA along spanwise direction Low Manfacturing Cost

Wing Twist: Geometric vs. Aerodynamic
Why? To minimize 3D finite wing
induced drag Wings are given twist so that the AoA (thus LIFT) varies along the span Washout: AoA decreases in AoA toward wingtip Washin: AoA increases in AoA toward wingtip Twist Method Geometric Twist: Changing the spanwise lift distribution by geometric twist Aerodynamic Twist: Changing the spanwise lift distribution by using different airfoil section along spanwise location
