AEROELASTICITY
(objectives)
STUDENTS ARE INTRODUCED TO THE METHODOLOGIES APPLIED IN AERONAUTICS FOR THE ANALYSIS OF AEROELASTIC PROBLEMS. THESE CONCERN FLUID-STRUCTURE INTERACTIONS, WITH ATTENTION TO INSTABILITY PHENOMENA LIKE FLUTTER AND DIVERGENCE. AEROELASTIC FORMULATIONS FOR 2D AND 3D WING MODELS ARE OBTAINED BY COUPLING STRUCUTRAL DYNAMMICS EQUATIONS WITH UNSTEADY AERODYNAMIC THEORIES, AND THEN SOLUTION METHODS ARE PRESENTED AND DISCUSSED.
