The Effects of Aeroelastic Tailoring on Flight Dynamic Stability
2018 AIAA/ASCE/AHS/ASC Structures, Structural Dynamics, and Materials Conference, 2018 This paper presents a unified framework for aeroelastic tailoring of free-flying aircraft with composite wings. A continuous-time state-space model is used to describe the flow. The 3D composite wing structures is condensed into a Timoshenko beam model by means of a cross-sectional modeler. The aerodynamic and structural models are closely coupled with

Practical considerations in aeroelastic design [PDF]
The structural design process for large transport aircraft is described. Critical loads must be determined from a large number of load cases within the flight maneuver envelope. The structural design is also constrained by considerations of producibility,
