Research on Panel Flutter

Abstract

A computer program was developed which is particularly well suited for use in parametric flutter investigations where a large quantity of numerical data required. The underlying analysis used exact, linearized, three-dimensional aerodynamic theory so the program can be used to investigate the critical low supersonic regime. Finite panel arrays can be treated, and wind tunnel installations can be simulated. A limited quantity of informative numerical data is presented Most of the data pertains to the flutter of single panels with free side edges, with and without adjacent vertical side walls.
