Thermally induced vibration response of composite thin walled beams is investigated. The thin-walled beam model incorporates a number of nonclassical effects of transverse shear, primary and secondary warping, rotary inertia and anisotropy of constituent materials. Thermally induced vibration response characteristics of a composite thin walled beam exhibiting the circumferentially uniform system(CUS) configuration are exploited in connection with the structural bending-torsion coupling resulting from directional properties of fiber reinforced composite materials and from ply stacking sequence. A coupled thermal structure analysis that includes the effects of structural deformations on heating and temperature gradient is investigated.

A new planform of a wing having two sweep angles is proposed to enhance the aeroelastic stability of a swept-forward wing. The double-swept wing has two sweep angles with inboard wing swept-back and outboard wing swept-forward. Aeroelastic analysis is performed with the finite element method to model wing structure and the doublet point method to predict aerodynamic loads. The sweep angle of the inboard wing is varied in this analysis while the outboard wing is swept forward to a pre-selected amount. The results show that the aeroelastic stability can be drastically enhanced by adjusting the sweep angle of the inboard wing. The effect of the fiber orientation in the double-swept composite wing is studied and the proper ply angle is identified to maximize critical speed.

The dynamic behavior of rotor-bearing system used in swash plate compressor has been investigated using the combined methodologies of finite elements and transfer matrices. The finite element is formulated including the field element for a shaft section and the point element for swash plate, disk pulley and bearings. The Houbolt method is used to consider the time march for the integration of the system equations. The transient whirl response of rotating shaft supported on roller bearings is obtained, considering compression forces and unbalance forces at swash plate and driving pulley. And, the steady state displacements of the rotor are compared with a variation in unbalance mass. Results show that the loci of rotating shaft considering unbalance forces and external compression forces are more severe in flutter motion than with only unbalance forces.

In this study, the natural frequencies and mode shape of an external mounting pod were verified using the modal analysis and modal testing technique for a pod mounted on an aircraft. The procedure associated with the FEM building of an external mounted pod to predict the dynamic behavior of aircraft structures is described. The simplified FEM reflecting the results of the modal testing of a pod is built through the optimization, applied to the structural dynamic model of an Aircraft, used to verified the stability of vibration and flutter of an aircraft.

Recent development of high speed computers and use of optimization techniques have given a big momentum of turbomachinery design replacing expensive experimental cost as well as trial and error approaches. The surrogate based optimization techniques being used for aerodynamic turbomachinery designs coupled with Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations analysis involve single- and multi-objective optimization methods. The objectives commonly tried to improve were adiabatic efficiency, pressure ratio, weight etc. Presently coupling the fluid flow and structural analysis is being tried to find better design in terms of weight, flutter and vibration, and turbine life. The present article reviews the surrogate based optimization techniques used recently in turbomachinery shape optimizations.

The dynamic properties of one-span or multi-span reinforced concrete footbridges of catenary form (see e.g., Fig. 1) include the very low fundamental natural frequency, usually near the step-frequency of pedestrians, and the low damping of bending vibrations. The paper summarized the results of model as well as full-scale measurements with particular reference to the influence of torsional rigidity of the stress-ribbon on the magnitude of aerodynamic response, the results of measurements on footbridges of catenary form being completed by results obtained on footbridges of some other types. Additionally the influence of the local broadening of the bridge deck on the bridge response was tested. Starting from these results the criterion has been derived for the decision, whether the flutter analysis is necessary for the design of the footbridge.

According to research currently developed by several authors (including the present ones) a multimode approach to the aeroelastic instability can be appropriate for suspension bridges with very long span and so with close natural frequencies. Extending that research, this paper deals in particular with: i) the role of along-wind modes, underlined also by means of the flutter mode representation; ii) the effects of a variation of the mean wind speed along the span. A characterisation of the response in the time domain by means of an energetic approach is also discussed.

Flight compatibility certification is performed to substantiate the compatibility between ALQ-X ECM pod and KF-16D/RF-4C aircraft. A certification plan for the ALQ-X flight compatibility is established. Similarity analysis, mass/inertia analysis, structural analysis/test, and ground vibration test/flutter analysis are made to support the safety of MIL-HDBK-1763 Test 250 (Captive compatibility flight profile). Aircraft flew along flight envelope boundary with representative ALQ-X configurations. Handling qualities are evaluated by comparing flight characteristics of the aircraft with and without ALQ-X. Structural integrity and endurance is evaluated using measured flight test data. Results of these flight tests showed that ALQ-X is compatible with KF-16D/RF-4C without altering the flight envelope which has originally been certified for ALQ-88 and ALQ-119 ECM pods. ALQ-X certification program made following technical achievements: Type III certification for foreign designed fighter, flutter analysis program development using GVT results, and utilization of MIL-STD-1553B data bus in flight test.

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.
