Nonlinear aeroelastic analysis of high aspect-ratio wings using the method of numerical continuation

This research explores the impact of kinematic structural nonlinearities on the dynamics of a highly deformable cantilevered wing. Two different theoretical formulations are presented and analysed for nonlinear behavior. The first formulation, which is more conventional, assumes zero equilibrias and...
