For the aerothermoelastic analysis of cylindrical piezolaminated shells, geometrically nonlinear finite elements based on the multi-field layerwise theory hale been developed. Applying a Han Krumhaar's supersonic piston theory, supersonic flutter analyses are performed for the cylindrical piezolaminted shells subject to thermal stresses and deformations. The possibility to increase flutter boundary and reduce thermoelastic deformations of piezolaminated panels is examined using piezoelectric actuations. Results show that active piezoelectric actuations can effectively increase the critical aerodynamic pressure by retarding the coalescence of flutter modes and compensating thermal stresses.

The paper deals with gravitational effect on dynamic stability of a cantilevered pipe conveying fluid. The eigenvalue branches and modes associated with flutter of cantilevered pipes conveying fluid are fully investigated. Governing equations of motion are derived by extended Hamilton's principle, and the solutions are sought by Galerkin's method. Root locus diagrams are plotted for different values of mass ratio of the pipe, and the order of branch in root locus diagrams is defined. The flutter modes of the pipe at the critical flow velocities are drawn at every one of the twelfth period. The transference of flutter-type instability from one eigenvalue branches to another is investigated thoroughly.

In this paper, the transonic aeroelastic behavior of the generic fighter model is investigated in the time domain. The simulation of flutter flight test using forced harmonic motion of control surfaces including inertial coupling effects is conducted at the various conditions. The nonlinear aerodynamic effects are considered using a transonic small disturbance equation. A modal model obtained by a free vibration analysis is used for the structural model. The relations between the computed flutter boundary and the simulation results of the responses using the harmonic motions of control surfaces at various conditions are investigated.

In this paper, vibration and flow-induced flutter instability analysis of cantilever multi-wall carbon nanotubes conveying fluid and modelled as a thin-walled beam is investigated. Non-classical effects of transverse shear and rotary inertia and van der Waals forces between two walls are incorporated in this study. The governing equations and the associated boundary conditions are derived through Hamilton's principle. Numerical analysis is performed by using extend Galerkin method which enables us to obtain more exact solutions compared with conventional Galerkin method. Cantilevered carbon nanotubes are damped with decaying amplitude for flow velocity below a certain critical value, however, beyond this critical flow velocity, flutter instability may occur. Variations of critical flow velocity with both radius ratio and length of carbon nanotubes are investigated and pertinent conclusion is outlined.

To identify aeroelastic characteristics of wings with double-folding mechanism, aeroelastic analyses are performed. There are four wing models which consist of one linear model and three nonlinear models. The nonlinear models have one or two freeplay nonlinearties. The describing function method is used to approximately examine nonlinear effects. The aeroelastic module in MSC/NASTRAN is used to study the aeroelastic characteristics of the considered wing models. The effects of the folding mechanism and amplitude ratio are examined. As the amplitude ratio increases, the flutter speeds approach to those of the wing model with only one nonlinearity. The numerical results show that the flutter speeds of the wings with double-folding mechanism can be lower or higher than those of the wing model with only one folding mechanism depending upon the direction of the second folding mechanism.

The influences of spring position and spring stiffness on the critical force of a cantilevered beam subjected to a follower force are investigated. The spring attatched to the beam is assumed to be a translational one and can be located at arbitrary positions of the beam as it has not been assumed so far. The effects of transeverse shear deformation and rotary intertia of the beam are also included in this analysis. The charateristic equation for the system is derived and a finite element model of the beam using local coordinates is formulated through extended Hamilton's principle. It is found that when the spring is located at position less than that of 0.5L, the flutter type instability only exists. It is shown that the spring position approaches to the free end of the beam from its midpoint, instability type is changed from flutter to divergence through the jump phenomina according to the increase of spring stiffness.

The stability behavior of the cantilever beam carrying several masses and subjected to a follower force at its free end is investigated. The effects of the location and the mass ratio of the concentrated masses on the stability of the system are discussed. An optimal location of the concentrated mass is determined to give maximum critical follower force. Discontinuities of the flutter load are observed for the system with more than two concentrated masses.
