Aircraft aeroelasticity and structural dynamics research at the NASA Langley Research Center: Some illustrative results [PDF]
Highlights of nine different research studies are described. Five of these topics relate directly to fixed-wing aircraft and range from flutter studies using relatively simple and inexpensive wind-tunnel models to buffet studies of the vertical tails of ...

Effects of nonlinear aerodynamics and static aeroelasticity on mission performance calculations for a fighter aircraft [PDF]
During conceptual design studies of advanced aircraft, the usual practice is to use linear theory to calculate the aerodynamic characteristics of candidate rigid (nonflexible) geometric external shapes.

Numerical and Experimental Study of Flutter in a Realistic Labyrinth Seal
Labyrinth seals are commonly used in turbomachinery in order to control leakage flows. Flutter is one of the most dangerous potential issues for them, leading to High Cycle Fatigue (HCF) life considerations or even mechanical failure.
