Assuming that the structural model is known a priori from a structural dynamics analysis and using linear transformations between structural and aeroelastic states, it is possible to identify the underlying aerodynamic system from the sampled time histories of the aeroelastic system. Once the aerodynamic model is known, an aeroelastic reduced-order model can be constructed in discrete-time, state-space format by coupling the structural model and the aerodynamic system. An advantange of the present method is that it works directly on time-history data of the coupled aeroelastic system, making it possible to utilize data from both experimental measurements and numerical simulations. The present reduced-order model is suitable for constant Mach, varying density (CMVD) analysis including flutter prediction and dynamic response calculation. For application and verification of the method the AGARD 445.6 wing will be considered. Computational aeroelasticity will be used for calculating aeroelastic responses. Flutter boundaries predicted by the reduced-order models will be compared to published test results for various Mach conditions.Read More
