Abstract:The static aeroelastic characteristics of a flexible V-tail airplane were studied by the analyses of the variations of aerodynamic derivatives and flight loads versus flight dynamic pressure. The results show that the variation trends of aerodynamic derivatives and flight loads of the flexible airplane are different from those of the rigid airplane. Therefore, it is necessary to consider the static aeroelastic effects during the flexible airplane design. Keywords: Aeroelasticity; aerodynamic derivative; flight… 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.
