    • 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, ...
