Decay-Damping Relationships for Highly Coupled Systems with Many Degrees of Freedom

Abstract

A mathematical study is made of the decay damping relationships in aerodynamic theory. Basic concepts of aeroelasticity are developed with respect to air speed, flutter, and modal displacement under supersonic conditions. Limited application is made of the first-order piston theory.
