Fast structural dynamic modeling and analysis for horizontally folding wing

Abstract

To investigate the structural dynamic characteristics of a folding wing effectively, a fast structural dynamic modeling approach is proposed. Firstly, the interface compatible relationship of the traditional fixed interface component modal synthesis method is modified, and the internal force of the interface is completely expressed in the structural dynamic equation, so that the influence of the connection stiffness on the wing structure dynamics can be considered. Then, on the basis of the fixed interface component modal synthesis method, the main mode of fixed-loaded interface is introduced to establish the mixed-loaded interface component modal synthesis method, which makes it feasible to accurately reflect the influence of elasticity and inertia of fuselage and outer wing on inner wing. The structural dynamics modeling method based on two different kinds of component modal synthesis method analyzed and deduced in detail. The application of component modal synthesis method in the fast structural dynamics modeling of folding wing is achieved. The whole program is compiled in MATLAB. At the same time, the dynamic characteristics of the folding wing with different folding angles, different connections and different connection positions is investigated. The results of the method proposed in this paper are compared with the results of the repeated finite model established in MSC.NASTRAN to verify the effectiveness from the aspects of natural frequency and vibration mode.
