Abstract: This paper deals with the nonlinear aeroelastic behaviors of bending-torsion wings subjected to a transverse follower force. The nonlinear structural wing formulation is based on von Karman large ...

Abstract: The flutter analysis of swept aircraft wings carrying a powered engine is presented. Because of the powered engine, both concentrated engine mass and the thrust force terms are combined in the governing equations which are ...

Abstract: In this paper, nonlinear flight dynamics of a flexible aircraft under aeroelastic and gust loads is presented. Hybrid state governing equations that incorporate both aircraft rigid-body motions and elastic deformations are ...

Abstract: In this paper, the optimal time-domain finite element method is applied to the flutter suppression of a nonlinear two-dimensional typical wing section. The aeroelastic governing equations are based on the inclusion of ...
