Aeroelastic and Flight Dynamics Analysis of Folding Wing Systems
Wang, Ivan (2013)This dissertation explores the aeroelastic stability of a folding wing using both theoretical and experimental methods. The theoretical model is based on the existing clamped-wing aeroelastic model that uses beam theory ... -
Component Modal Analysis of a Folding Wing
Wang, Ivan (2011)This thesis explores the aeroelastic stability of a folding wing with an arbitrary number of wing segments. Simplifying assumptions are made such that it is possible to derive the equations of motion analytically. First, ...
