Abstract
The investigators present a study of dynamic and aeroelastic response of structures which evolve due to damage. Aeroelastic response is shown to be dependent upon the distribution and accumulation of damage. In hun, the damage is dependent upon the presence of the aerodynamic loads. Dynamic characteristics are unique to the coupled damage / aeroelastic system and are developed as part of the solution methodology. In this study, the damage is due to the natural progression of microcracking of the composite sbucture; yet, the control model presented is appropriate for distributed actuation systems. The stability boundary for aeroelastic flutter and divergence evolves due to damage. Control design based upon the min-max control theory is presented which addresses model uncertainties.
