Abstract:T h e~a i r resonance aeroelastic stability boundaries of a. softin-plane, hingeless-rotor helicopter were explored using both an 1Rdegree-of-freedom analysis and aFroude-scaled,28in. diameter rotor model. Correlation between analytical results and test data was excellent in terms of stability boundaries, mode shapes, and frequencies, thus lending credibility to both. Some physical insights of the air resonance phenomenon were gained with both the analysis and the test. Sensitivity of the air resonance stabili… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
