Active flutter suppression is an increasingly critical field in aeronautical engineering, addressing the challenges posed by the dynamic aeroelastic interactions in modern flexible aircraft. As ...

The Integrated Adaptive Wing Technology Maturation wind-tunnel model installed in the Transonic Dynamics Tunnel at NASA ...

A team of international researchers has succeeded in overcoming one of the greatest challenges in aviation. They have actively suppressed the dreaded phenomenon of flutter with a sophisticated control ...

Moscow-based Central Aerohydrodynamic Institute (TsAGI) has completed flutter tests on the Sukhoi Superjet 100 ( SSJ100) extended range aircraft, which has a new wing with improved structure.

When aircraft begin to vibrate in flight, things get uncomfortable – or even dangerous in the worst case. Flow-induced oscillations on wings or tailplanes can have catastrophic consequences. These are ...

Boeing passed a major milestone today in the 787 Dreamliner program. Today's flight test of airframe ZA001, the first 787 to fly back in December, marks the end of flutter testing for the airplane.

Boeing has completed aeroelastic flutter testing and ground effects testing with its first two 787 test aircraft. This clears the way for the formal US Federal Aviation Administration certification ...
