Abstract

This paper deals with an analytical study on the aileron reversal characteristics of anisotropic composite aircraft wings modelled as thin-walled beam and having extension-twist structural couplings caused by Circumferentially Uniform Stiffness (CUS) layup scheme. For a study on the aileron reversal of CUS composite wings, it is essential to consider the following effects such as extension-twist structural coupling, wing aspect ratio, and ratio of span-wise and chord-wise length of aileron to wing, initial angle of attack, and sweep angle, etc. The results on the aileron reversal could have a significant role in more efficient designs of thin-walled composite wing aircraft for which this aeroelastic instability is one of the most critical ones.

본 논문은 Circumferentially Uniform Stiffness (CUS) 형상의 복합재료 얇은 벽 보로 모델링한 항공기 날개의 에일러론 역전 특성에 대해 해석적인 연구를 수행하였다. CUS 복합재료 날개의 에일러론 역전 특성을 연구하기 위해, 신장-비틀림 구조 연성, 날개의 가로세로비, 에일러론 대 날개의 시위비 및 길이비, 초기 받음각, Sweep 각 등을 고려하여야 한다. 얇은 벽 보의 항공기 날개에 대한 보다 더 효과적인 설계를 위해, 에일러론 역전 특성과 관련한 연구 결과는 매우 중요한 역할을 담당할 수 있을 것이다.
