Flow Modulation and Fluid—Structure Interaction at Airplane Wings

Part of the book series: Notes on Numerical Fluid Mechanics and Multidisciplinary Design ((NNFM,volume 84))

Summary

We consider general theoretical issues of the aeroelastic fluid-structure-interaction. In particular we have chosen an elastic panel in transonic flow as our model problem for computational experiments. First we consider the question of well-posedness of the equation system, giving a uniqueness result. Numerical simulations address the choice of the structural model and the choice of the time-marching-scheme that couples the equations of fluid and structure.
