Numerical Simulations of Interactions Among Aerodynamics, Structural Dynamics, and Control Systems

A robust technique for performing numerical simulations of nonlinear unsteady aeroelastic behavior is developed. The technique is applied to long-span bridges and the wing of a modern business jet. The heart of the procedure is combining the aerodynamic and structural models. The aerodynamic model i...
