Effects of Inertial and Geometric Nonlinearities in the Simulation of Flexible Aircraft Dynamics
This thesis examines the relative importance of the inertial and geometric nonlinearities in modelling the dynamics of a flexible aircraft. Inertial nonlinearities are derived by employing an exact definition of the velocity distribution and lead to coupling between the rigid body and elastic motion...
