Aeroelasticity is a critical consideration in the design of gas turbine engines, both for stability and forced response. Current aeroelastic models cannot provide highdelity aerodynamics in a form suitable for design or control applications. In this thesis low-order, highdelity aerodynamic models are developed using systematic model order reduction from computational uid dynamic (CFD) methods. ...

An integrated computational  uid dynamics (CFD) and computational structural dynamics (CSD) method is developed for the simulation and prediction of  utter. The CFD solver is based on an unsteady, parallel, multiblock, multigrid Ž nite volume algorithm for the Euler/Navier–Stokes equations. The CSD solver is based on the time integration of modal dynamic equations extracted from full Ž nite e...

This research combines Volterra theory and proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) into a hybrid methodology for reduced-order modeling of aeroelastic systems. The outcome of the method is a set of linear ordinary differential equations (ODEs) describing the modal amplitudes associated with both the structural modes and the POD basis functions for the fluid. For this research, the structural mode...

This paper introduces an adaptive flutter suppression control algorithm which is based on the iterative estimate of the aeroelastic plant and design of the feedback controller. In this algorithm, the dual-Youla parametrization is implemented as an essential part to estimate the open loop aeroelastic model from the closed loop experiment. The advantage of utilizing the dual-Youla parametrization...

abstract  background: the brain response to temporal frequencies (tf) has been already reported, but with no study reported for different tf with respect to various spatial frequencies (sf).  materials and methods: fmri was performed by 1.5t ge-system in 14 volunteers during checkerboard, with tfs of 4, 6, 8 and 10hz in low and high sfs of 0.5 and 8cpd.  results: average percentage bold signal ...

Vibro-acoustic analysis at high frequencies is challenging due to a large sensitivity spatial variations and short acoustical wavelengths, rendering deterministic methods expensive. At these frequencies, the wave field usually assumed diffuse. A realization of diffuse can be obtained considering that mode shapes system are Gaussian random fields, its squared eigenfrequency spacings distribution...

Aeroelastic qualification requirements are typically met by sizing aircraft to achieve adequate stability margins and keep peak gust responses below specified thresholds. A possible alternative approach is delaying flutter alleviating response embedding dissipative materials into structural components. This requires accurate damping models applicable the analysis of complex configurations. In t...
