Evaluation of four subcritical response methods for on-line prediction flutter onset in wind-tunnel tests [PDF]

open access: yes
The methods were evaluated for use in tests where the flutter model is excited solely by airstream turbulence. The methods were: randomdec, power-spectral-density, peak-hold, and cross-spectrum.

Subsonic flutter analysis addition to NASTRAN [PDF]

open access: yes, 1973
A subsonic flutter analysis capability has been developed for NASTRAN, and a developmental version of the program has been installed on the CDC 6000 series digital computers at the Langley Research Center.

Effects of winglet on transonic flutter characteristics of a cantilevered twin-engine-transport wing model [PDF]

open access: yes
A transonic model and a low-speed model were flutter tested in the Langley Transonic Dynamics Tunnel at Mach numbers up to 0.90. Transonic flutter boundaries were measured for 10 different model configurations, which included variations in wing fuel ...

Falling plates with leading-edge vortex shedding [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
We develop a new numerical method for thin plates falling in inviscid fluid that allows for leading-edge vortex shedding. The inclusion of leading-edge shedding restores physical dynamics to vortex-sheet models of falling bodies, and for the first time large-amplitude fluttering and tumbling are observed in inviscid simulations.

A preliminary study of the effects of vortex diffusers (winglets) on wing flutter [PDF]

open access: yes
Some experimental flutter results are presented for a simple, flat-plate wing model and for the same wing model equipped with two different upper surface vortex diffusers over the Mach number range from about 0.70 to 0.95.

A Study on the Two-Dimensional Numerical Simulation of Wing Flutter in a Heavy Gas

open access: yesAerospace
Using heavy gases in wind tunnel tests can reduce model weight issues, which have intensified with advancements in high-performance aircraft technology. This study employs time-domain analysis to examine the flutter characteristics and correction methods
