In the research topic of aeroelastic design, we deal with various design tasks in the context of the aeroelastic design of an aircraft, an aircraft component or a wind tunnel model. The development of ...
Aeroelastic control systems represent a critical intersection between aerodynamic theory and structural dynamics, addressing the complex interactions that give rise to flutter – a self-excited ...
Wings with longer spans and lower weight generate less drag – and are therefore more energy efficient. More efficient lift could reduce kerosene consumption and thus reduce emissions and costs. The ...
Considering the characteristics of large slenderness ratio structure, it is reasonable to simplify the dynamics of a HALE aircraft as the plunge, pitch, and flap motions of a planar airfoil. The ...
In a collaboration between the German Aerospace Center (Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt; DLR, Göttingen, Germany) and the Technical University of Munich (TUM, Munich, Germany), researchers ...
March 26, 2005 A flight research project that put a 21st century twist on a century-old technology -- a high-tech derivative of the Wright brothers' wing-warping method of controlling an aircraft's ...
The Aeroelastic Simulation Department focuses on the numerical analysis of aeroelastic problems. Investigations for transport aircraft, small aircraft, turbomachines and rotorcraft are performed in ...
