Abstract:
This project is made to study the fluid structure interaction for light aircraft wing structure (SAFAT 03 wing structure) that was drawn by CATIA software; in order to know if the requirements of certification are being satisfied to ensure the freedom of aeroelasticity problem such as flutter and divergence.
Galerkin energy method utilized to calculate the flutter and divergence speed and a MATLAB code used in order to calculate the flutter speed
The fluid structure interaction approach has been used in ANSYS, the problem setup in ANSYS environment and tested using a typical wing configuration, but due to the complexity of SAFAT-03 wing structural components and the limitation of computing platform the results not obtained using ANSYS.
