Boundary Control for Flutter Suppression of a Flexible Wing under Unsteady Aerodynamic Loads
This paper addresses the boundary control for flutter suppression of a flexible wing, both in bending and twisting displacements, under unsteady aerodynamic loads. The wing is modeled by a distributed parameter system described as two coupled partial differential equations. The problem is tackled in the framework of semigroup theory, and a Lyapunov-based stability analysis is carried out to ass...
متن کاملHollow Piezoelectric Cylinder under Transient Loads
In this paper, transient solution of two dimensional asymmetric thermal and mechanical stresses for a hollow cylinder made of piezoelectric material is developed. Transient temperature distribution, as function of radial and circumferential directions and time with general thermal boundary-conditions, is analytically obtained, using the method of separation of variables and<br...
متن کاملAerodynamic loads on cactus-shaped cylinders at low Reynolds numbers
Direct numerical simulations of flow past cactus-shaped cylinders are performed at Reynolds numbers of 20, 100, and 300. The results are contrasted to those from smooth cylinders at the same Reynolds numbers. The cavities in the cactus-shaped cylinders are seen to reduce the forces acting on them. At Reynolds number of 20, the drag is reduced by 22% due to reduction in the viscous forces. At Re...
متن کاملAerodynamic Shape Optimization of Wing and Wing-Body Configurations Using Control Theory
This paper describes the implementation of optimization techniques based on control theory for wing and wing-body design. In previous studies [18, 19,221 i t wasshown that control theory could be used to devise an effective optimization procedure for airfoils and wings in which the shape and the surrounding body-fitted mesh are both generated analytically, and the control is the mapping functio...
متن کاملDistributed Measurement of Aerodynamic Loads
A method for accurately measuring the drag associated with a protuberance on an aircraft has been devised and implemented in a wind tunnel using a C-130 model. The C-130 aircraft has been heavily modified for various different configurations and the impact that these modifications have had on the aerodynamic performance of the aircraft has not been well documented. This paper describes a method...
