Experimental Scaled Generalized Stiffness Matrix (Diagonal): T K
Experimental Scaled Generalized Mass Matrix (Diagonal) : T M
Experimental Scaled Modal Matrix: [{1},{ 2}.....{n}]
Theoretical Aerodynamic Force Matrix (Unsymmetric): A
At some critical aerodynamic parameter (depending on the dynamic
pressure or flow velocity) the Realpart of turns positive (unstable) from
negative values.
This critical value of the flow speed is the flutter speed of the
structure which is to be determined.
Future Work
Extension of the method to flat plates for predicting generalised stiffness and
mass (scaled to unit modal displacement at reference point) for both torsion and
bending modes.
