They're specifically the multiple interleaved "plates" at the hinged area
which slide past one another as the wing changes orientation between
attack, cruise, and landing configuration.

(My theory is that they help keep the warp field "smooth" so it can't be
detected from a distance when the cloaking device is active.)
