Abstract

This paper deals with the generation and use of proper aerodynamic indicial functions toward the aeroelastic formulation of two-dimensional lifting surfaces in the subsonic compressible, linearized transonic, supersonic and hypersonic flight speed regimes. The indicial function approach enables one to treat in an unified way (i.e. in the time and frequency domains) the subcritical aeroelastic response and the flutter instability of lifting surfaces. Validations of the aerodynamic model are documented and excellent agreements are reported. In addition, closed form solutions and aerodynamic derivatives for different flight speed regimes are obtained; comparisons, and results displaying the aeroelastic response to blast loads are presented, and pertinent conclusions are outlined.
