Published in 2017 at "Nonlinear Dynamics"

DOI: 10.1007/s11071-016-3176-4

Abstract: Nonlinear dynamic behaviors of an aeroelastic airfoil with free-play in transonic air flow are studied. The aeroelastic response is obtained by using time-marching approach with computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and reduced order model (ROM) techniques.… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Journal of Sound and Vibration"

DOI: 10.1016/j.jsv.2020.115896

Abstract: Abstract Most of the previous studies on free-play aeroelasticity were based on the linear aerodynamic theory, which cannot consider the aerodynamic nonlinear effects. This paper proposes a framework of computational fluid dynamics/computational structural dynamics (CFD/CSD)… read more here.
