Although the mathematical theory of distributed parametersystems has made rapid advances recently, it seems more expedient, from apractical point of view, to approximate aeroelastic systems, mai
16、nly aircraftwings and control surfaces, by finite state models. The techniques ofapproximating aircraft wing structures by finite state models which make useof finite elements and other structural idealizations are well known. Nosystematic techniques exist, however, for approximating the aerodynamic
17、 loadson these structures by compatible finite state models for aeroelastic purposes.Thus a systematic theory for approximating aerodynamic loads on aircraft wingsby finite state models used along with well-known techniques of structuralidealization could be tremendously useful not only for understa
18、nding aero-elastic instabilities but also in the development of control systems forsuppressing aeroelastic instabilities. Such theories can also prove helpfulin the minimum weight design of aircraft structures.This paper is concerned with the finite state modeling of aeroelasticsystems. The well-kno
19、wn theories of modeling of aircraft wing structures arebriefly presented. A general theory is then developed for the modeling ofunsteady aerodynamic loads on wings and airfoils. These aerodynamic modelsmay be used in conjunction with structural models for aeroelastic purposes.General Description of
20、the ProblemThe general techniques of calculating unsteady aerodynamic loads forsimple harmonically oscillating airfoils and lifting surfaces are out-lined in _ , 2J and 3. With these techniques it is possible tocalculate the unsteady aerodynamic loads for different modes of oscilla-tion at a given f

In 1925, Wagner1,3 first studied thegrowth of lift on a two dimensional airfoil in incompressible flow dueto an impulsive change in the vertical velocity of the airfoil.

29、G OF STRUCTURESFinite Element ModelsThe finite element method is often regarded as generating a dis-crete model of a physical system. The method may also be viewed as avariational technique, where an attempt is made to minimize the demandfor ingenuity in the construction of trial functions. This dis
30、cretematrix technique for the formulation and solution of linear dynamicproblems in engineering mechanics has been widely discussed in theliterature 5. This approach has proved useful in obtaining approxi-mate analyses of complex structural configurations that are difficultto handle by exact mathema
31、tical formulations. The bookkeeping requiredfor solving the large number of linear simultaneous equations involvedis readily handled by matrix algebra techniques and the resultinganalytical formulations are tremendously simplified. Thus concurrentdevelopment or revision of different sections of larg
32、e digital computerprograms to perform the analysis is feasible. This feature has led toits use and acceptance as a basic tool for dynamic structural responsecalculations. The aim of this section is to briefly describe how thetechnique can be useful for finite state modeling of wing structures.The ef

34、 simple superposition of each matrix, from correspondingmatricies for the discrete elements that modelthe wing in detail. A stiffnessand massmatrix generator program (SAMGEN)was written for this pur-pose. Several different types of elements were incorporated in theprogram. This program was found to

Thewing is connected structurally to the fuselage, so that the root is notcompletely rigid. Further it is assumedto have a finite numberof trail-ing edge flaps, NF
36、 in number, which provide for the control torques.The flaps are assumedto function as rigid bodies which are good approx-imations for most control flaps. The wing is assumedto have a largeaspect ratio, at least, for structural purposes. This permits thewing to be modeled as a beam-rod. The actual ro
37、ot is replaced by aneffective root normal to the elastic axis of the wing. Rotationalinertia, shear deformations and sectional bending are neglected.Let h(x, t), e(x, t), _i(t) i = l, 2, 3, .- NF, be the verticaldisplacement of the wing along the elastic axis, the torsional dis-placement of the wing
