In this study, a comparison study of flutter analysis for the AGARD 445.6 wing with wind turnnel test data has been conducted in the subsonic, transonic and supersonic flow regions. Nonlinear aeroelastic using FSIPRO3D which is a generalized user-friendly fluid-structure analyses have been conducted for a 3D wing configuration considering shockwave and turbulent viscosity effects. The developed fluid-structure coupled analysis system is applied for aeroelastic computations combining computational structure dynamics(CSD), finite element method(FEM) and computations fluid dynamics(CFD) in the time domain. MSC/NASTRAN is used for the vibration analysis of a wing model, and then the result is applied to the FSIPRO3D module. the results for dynamic aeroelastic response using different turbulent models are presented for several Mach numbers. Calculated flutter boundary are compared with the wind-tunnel experimental and the results show very good agreements.

A stability theory of a damped cantilever column under sub-tangential follower forces is first summarized based on the stability map. It is then demonstrated that internal and external damping can be exactly transformed to Rayleigh damping so that the damping coefficients can be effectively determined using proportional damping. Particularly a parametric study with variation of damping coefficients is performed in association with flutter loads of Beck's column and it is shown that two damping coefficients can be correctly estimated for real systems under the assumption of Rayleigh damping. Finally a frequency equation of a cantilever beam subjected to both a sub-tangentially follower force and two kinds of damping forces is presented in the closed-form and its stability maps are constructed and compared with FE solutions in the practical range of damping coefficients.

A method of considering the fluid induced external force in structural dynamic analysis is presented in this study. The fluid induced pressure distribution around a structure in discrete number of orientation. and velocity is calculated by using a CFD code and tabulated as resultant forces and moments in a database. These forces and moments are interpolated and employed as external forces during the dynamic analysis of structure. The reliability and usefulness of the present method is validated by using a simple discrete system example through transient analysis. The flutter speed is obtained and compared to the analytical solution. Comparing to the method in which structural dynamic and fluid flow analyses are performed simultaneously, the present method is very efficient to save computational effort.

For the aeroelastic analysis of a wing with friction damping, coupled time integration method was used to obtain time responses in the subsonic and transonic regions. To take into account aerodynamic nonlinearity induced by shock wave on the lifting surface, transonic small disturbance equation with in-phase periodic boundary condition was used for unsteady aerodynamic calculation. For 2-DOF airfoil system with displace-dependent friction dampers, the effects of normal load slope and Mach number on flutter boundary were investigated.

Civil aviation regulation such as FAR and loads analysis procedure based on this was explained, and loads analysis procedure and results for Smart UAV was presented for application case. For loads analysis, applicable regulations and loads conditions should be prepared in advance, and modeling for aerodynamics, weight, and structure should be performed. Panel method is usually adopted for aircraft loads analysis to obtain aerodynamic loads. In this study, ARGON which is multidisciplinary fixed wing aircraft design software co-developed by KARI and TsAGI was used for loads analysis. ARGON can be utilized for flutter and stress analysis as well as for flight and ground loads analysis. In this paper, flight loads analysis of 4-seater canard airplane was performed with ARGON and that results were presented.

The linear and nonlinear aeroelastic analyses of a flat plate wing with flaperon have been performed by using frequency-domain and time-domain analyses. Natural modes from free vibration analysis and a doublet-hybrid method (DHM) are used for the computation of subsonic unsteady aerodynamic forces. The flaperon hinge is represented by a free-play spring and is linearized by the described function method. The linear and nonlinear flutter analyses indicate that flapping mode of the flaperon, the hinge stiffness and free-play of hinge have significant effects on the aeroelastic characteristics. From the nonlinear flutter analysis, different modes like stable and unstable limit-cycle-oscillation are observed in same flutter velocity depending on initial conditions.

In this paper a dynamic behavior(natural frequency) of a cracked cantilever beam subjected to follower force is presented. In addition, an analysis of the flutter and buckling instability of a cracked cantilever beam subjected to a follower compressive load is presented. Based on the Euler-Bernouli beam theory, the equation of motion can be constructed by using the Lagrange's equation. The vibration analysis on such cracked beam is conducted to identify the critical follower force for flutter insstability based on the variation of the first two resonant frequencies of the beam. Besides, the effect of the crack's intensity and location on the flutter follower force is studied. The crack section is represented by a local flexibility matrix connecting two undamaged beam segments. The crack is assumed to be in the first mode of fracture and to be always opened during the vibrations.

This study presents the aerodynamic admittance function of bridge girder under turbulent flow generated from wind velocity spectrum measured at bridge site. Three dimensional buffeting analysis of concrete cable-stayed bridge were performed considering aerodynamic admittance functions obtained from four different methods. It is revealed from the analysis that vertical buffeting responses considering proper aerodynamic admittance functions were just half of that neglecting aerodynamic admittance function. Grid turbulence was found to relatively lower the aerodynamic admittance function at low frequency range, and to underestimate the buffeting wind forces. It is recommended to use the aerodynamic admittance function evaluated from flutter derivatives or measured at active turbulence in order to properly predict the buffeting responses of bridges.
