We study a boundary value problem in subsonic aeroelasticity and introduce the cofinite Hilbert transform as a tool in solving an auxiliary linear integral equation on the complement of a finite interval on the real line R.

A review of the state-of-the-art in hypersonic aeroelasticity and aerothermoelasticity is provided. Recently, the main focus in this area has been on the development of computational aeroelastic and aerothermoelastic methods capable of studying complete hypersonic vehicles. Thus, in addition to a survey of studies conducted in this area over the past six decades, two important issues are a focu...

A method to compute sensitivities for use in gradient-based shape optimization applied to unsteady aeroelasticity problems is presented. The method takes into account the coupling between all three fundamental aspects of computational aeroelasticity, namely, unsteady flow equations, time varying structural response to aerodynamic loads, and dynamic meshes that accommodate geometric deformations...
