A High Efficient Fluid-Structure Interaction Method for Flutter Analysis of Mistuned [PDF]
The time cost is very high by direct fluid-structure interaction method for mistuned bladed disk structures, so aerodynamic loads generally are ignored or treated as small perturbations in traditional flutter analysis.

Wake Dynamics and Rotor-Fuselage Aerodynamic Interactions [PDF]
The unsteady loads experienced by a helicopter are known to be strongly influenced by aerodynamic interactions between the rotor and fuselage; these unsteady loads can lead to deficiencies in handling qualities and unacceptable vibratory characteristics of the rotorcraft.
