Composite materials enable the tailoring of load-dependent, passive, shape adaptation
because of the directional stiffness of the fibers. However, excessive flow-induced vibrations …

This paper introduces a new metric to constrain postflutter responses of aeroelastic systems
in design optimization. The new metric aggregates the recovery rate to equilibrium for a …

Lightweight high-aspect-ratio wings make aircraft more energy efficient thanks to their lower
induced drag. Because such wings exhibit large deflections, design optimization based on …

This paper presents a new approach for constraining limit-cycle oscillations in aeroelastic
design optimization. The approach builds on a gradient-oriented limit-cycle oscillation …

A partial differential equation (PDE) constrained design optimization problem usually
optimizes a characteristic of a dynamical system around an equilibrium point. However, a …

This paper introduces a novel approach to constrain limit-cycle oscillations in design
optimization. The approach builds upon a limit-cycle oscillation constraint that bounds the …

This paper presents a machine learning-based airfoil shape optimization framework
designed to increase flutter resistance and reduce drag. Using the National Advisory …

This paper presents the development of a tightly coupled nonlinear aeroelastic analysis for
studying both static and dynamic aeroelastic responses of very flexible plate models. This …

The mitigation of climate change effects through the decarbonization of the global
production system is one of the most pressing challenges of our time. Wind and solar power …

Aeroelastic flutter is a dynamically complex phenomenon that has adverse and unstable
effects on elastic structures. It is crucial to better predict the phenomenon of flutter within the …
