Chaotic Dynamics of an Airfoil with Higher-Order Plunge and Pitch Stiffnesses in Incompressible Flow

Dynamical properties of a two-dimensional airfoil model with higher-order strong nonlinearities are investigated. Firstly, a state-space model is derived considering the plunge and pitch stiffnesses as generalized functions. Then, a stiffness function having square, cubic, and fifth-power nonlineari...
