This paper shows the application of a hysteretic model for the Magnetorheological Damper (MRD) placed in the plunge degree-of-freedom of aeroelastic model of a wing. This hysteretic MRD model was developed by the researchers ...

A methodology to simulate the unsteady, nonlinear aeroelastic behavior of a folding-wing concept in multiple flight configurations is presented. It is based on a partitioned or co-simulation scheme, which divides the ...

The objective of this paper is to describe a new method for modeling aeroelastic system in time domain based on a modification of the Laguerre Polynomials to represent complex quantities. These polynomials are used to ...

The effects of the aerodynamic loads on continuous wing-based systems can be represented using a quasi-steady or a fully unsteady reduced-order modeling. Frequently, the quasi-steady formulation is used to model the ...

The use of piezoelectric materials in various applications, including the development of bio-inspired structures, vibration control, energy harvesting, among others, has been investigated by several researchers over the ...

The paper is concerned with direct aeroelastic bifurcation analyses of an airfoil system in which both aerodynamic and structural nonlinearities are considered. Here, structural dynamics is treated in terms of polynomial ...

Impacts can happen in real aircraft movable surfaces, such as ailerons, flaps, rudder, elevators, trim tabs among others secondary control surfaces leading to complex, dangerous and unpredictable transitions. In a real ...
