A Comparative Assessment of Aerodynamic Models for Buffeting and Flutter of Long-Span Bridges

Wind-induced vibrations commonly represent the leading criterion in the design of long-span bridges. The aerodynamic forces in bridge aerodynamics are mainly based on the quasi-steady and linear unsteady theory. This paper aims to investigate different formulations of self-excited and buffeting forces in the time domain by comparing the dynamic response of a multi-span cable-stayed bridge during the critical erection condition. The bridge is selected to represent a typical reference object with a bluff con- crete box girder for large river crossings. The models are viewed from a perspective of model complexity, comparing the influence of the aerodynamic properties implied in the aerodynamic models, such as aerodynamic damping and stiffness, fluid memory in the buffeting and self-excited forces, aerodynamic nonlinearity, and aerodynamic coupling on the bridge response. The selected models are studied for a windspeed range that is typical for the construction stage for two levels of turbulence intensity. Furthermore, a simplified method for the computation of buffeting forces including the aerodynamic admittance is presented, in which rational approximation is avoided. The critical flutter velocities are also compared for the selected models under laminar flow.

Fluid-structure interaction of panel in supersonic fluid passage

Fluid-structure interaction of panel in supersonic fluid passage is studied with subcycling and spline interpolation based predict-correct scheme. The passage is formed with two parallel panels, one is rigid and the other is flexible. The interaction between fluid flows and flexible panel is numerically studied, mainly focused on the effect of dynamic pressure and distance between two parallel panels. Subcycling and spline interpolation based predict-correct scheme is utilized to combine the vibration and fluid analysis and to stabilize long-term calculations to get accurate results. It’s demonstrated that the flutter characteristic of flexible panel is more complex with the increase of dynamic pressure and the decrease of distance between two parallel panels. Via analyzing the propagation and reflection of disturbance in passage, it’s determined as a main cause of the variations.

Model Order Reduction of Complex Airframes Using Component Mode Synthesis for Dynamic Aeroelasticity Load Analysis

Airframe structural optimization at different design stages results in new mass and stiffness distributions which modify the critical design loads envelop. Determination of aircraft critical loads is an extensive analysis procedure which involves simulating the aircraft at thousands of load cases as defmed in the certification requirements. It is computationally prohibitive to use a GFEM （Global Finite Element Model） for the load analysis, hence reduced order structural models are required which closely represent the dynamic characteristics of the GFEM. This paper presents the implementation of CMS （Component Mode Synthesis） method for the generation of high fidelity ROM （Reduced Order Model） of complex airframes. Here, sub-structuring technique is used to divide the complex higher order airframe dynamical system into a set of subsystems. Each subsystem is reduced to fewer degrees of freedom using matrix projection onto a carefully chosen reduced order basis subspace. The reduced structural matrices are assembled for all the subsystems through interface coupling and the dynamic response of the total system is solved. The CMS method is employed to develop the ROM of a Bombardier Aerospace business jet which is coupled with aerodynamic model for dynamic aeroelasticity loads analysis under gust turbulence. Another set of dynamic aeroelastic loads is also generated employing a stick model of same aircraft. Stick model is the reduced order modelling methodology commonly used in the aerospace industry based on stiffness generation by unitary loading application. The extracted aeroelastic loads from both models are compared against those generated employing the GFEM. Critical loads modal participation factors and modal characteristics of the different ROMs are investigated and compared against those of the GFEM. Results obtained show that the ROM generated using Craig Bampton CMS reduction process has a superior dynamic characteristics compared to the stick model.

Unified Aerodynamic-Acoustic Formulation for Aero-Acoustic Structure Coupling

Conventional coupled BE/FE （Boundary-Element/Finite-Element） method and modeling of structural-acoustic interaction has shown its promise and potential in the design and analysis of various structural-acoustic interaction applications. Unified combined acoustic and aerodynamic loading on the structure is synthesized using two approaches. Firstly, by linear superposition of the acoustic pressure disturbance to the aeroelastic problem, the effect of acoustic pressure disturbance to the aeroelastic structure is considered to consist of structural motion independent incident acoustic pressure and structural motion dependent acoustic pressure, which is known as the scattering pressure, referred here as the acoustic aerodynamic analogy. Secondly, by synthesizing the acoustic and aerodynamic effects on elastic structure using an elegant, effective and unified approach, both acoustic and aerodynamic effect on solid structural boundaries can be formulated as a boundary value problem governed by second order differential equations which lead to solutions expressible as surface integral equations. The unified formulation of the acousto-aeroelastic problem is amenable for simultaneous solution, although certain prevailing situations allow the solution of the equations independently. For this purpose, the unsteady aerodynamic problem which was earlier utilizes well-established lifting surface method is reformulated using Boundary Element （BE） approach. These schemes are outlined and worked out with examples.

Computational methods and engineering applications of static/dynamic aeroelasticity based on CFD/CSD coupling solution

The CFD/CSD coupling method is turning into the main research direction for the static/dynamic aeroelastic analyses. If one wants to use the method for the complex engineering aeroelastic problems, he needs to investigate the relative aeroelasfic algorithms, such as the numerical computational method of unsteady aerodynamic forces, equivalent low-dimensional structural fi- nite element model and the solution method of structural dynamic equations, data transfer technique between fluid and structure, the moving grid method, etc. Besides, he also needs to improve the computational efficiency by such as massive parallel CFD algorithm, reduced-order model （ROM） of unsteady aerodynamic forces, etc. In this paper, based on the authors＇ recent investigations, the research progresses in computational aeroelastic methods and their applications to engineering problem are summarized.

Numerical Investigation on Aeroelastic Behavior of Composite Material Plate Excited by Pulsed Air Jet

Nowadays, carbon fiber composite material is becoming more and more popular in aero engine industry due to its high specific strength and stiffness. Laminate carbon fiber composite material is widely used to manufacture the high load wide chord fan blade, containment casing, etc. The aeroelastic behavior of composite product is critical for the optimization of the product design and manufacturing. In order to explore its aeroelastic property, this paper discusses the coupled simulation of aerodynamic excitation applied on laminate composite material plate. Mechanical behavior of composite material plate is different from that of isotropic material plate such as metal plate, because it is anisotropy and has relative high mechanical damping due to resin between plies. These plates to be studied are designed using 4 different layup configurations which follow the design methods for composite fan blade. The numerical simulation of force response analysis mainly uses single frequency mechanical force input to simulate the electromagnetic shakers or other actuators, which could transmit mechanical force to the test parts. Meanwhile, pulsed air excitation is another way to "shake" the test parts. This excitation method induces aero damping into the test part and simulates the unsteady flow in aero engine, which could cause aeroelastic problems, such as flutter, forced response and non-synchronous vibration(NSV). In this study, numerical simulation using coupled method is conducted to explore the characteristics of laminate composite plates and the property of aerodynamic excitation force generated by pulsed air jet device. Modal analysis of composite plate shows that different ply stacking sequences have a significant impact on the plate vibration characteristics. Air pulse frequency and amplitude in flow field analysis are calibrated by hot wire anemometer results. As the air pulse frequency and amplitude are varied, incident angle of flow and layup configurations of plate can be analyzed in details by the simulations. Through the comparisons of all these factors, air pulse excitation property and the aeroelastic behavior of composite material plate are estimated. It would provide a possible way to guide the next-step experimental work with the pulsed air rig. The new composite fan blade design can be evaluated through the process.

The aeroelastic effects on the scatter phenomenon of wind-tunnel data

The unsteady Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations coupled with the k-co SST turbulence model are solved to obtain the steady and unsteady aerodynamic forces for airfoils and wings. The effects of vibration types and amplitudes on aerody- namic forces of airfoils and wings are studied. The deformation characteristics of a swept wing induced by steady aerodynamic load are presented. It is found that for a vibrating elastic wing at small and medium incidences, its mean aerodynamic loads are almost the same as those obtained from the static one. On the contrary, at high incidences especially around the stall incidence, the vibration may change the mean values. In addition, the larger amplitude is, the larger discrepancy will be. For a swept wing, the steady aerodynamic loads usually lead to the ＂pitching down＂ effect on the wing tip which delays the stall compared with a rigid one; But this phenomenon dose not occur on a aeroelastic wing which can induce the separation ahead and trigger the stall. The above conclusions are in good agreement with the scatter characteristics of wind-tunnel data. The reason why the data obtained from wind tunnel and CFD are different is also analyzed. Meanwhile, it can be an explanation for scatter phe- nomenon of wind-tunnel data, especially for high incidence cases, which remains a puzzle so far.

Static aeroelastic analysis of a high-aspect-ratio wing based on wind-tunnel experimental aerodynamic forces

The aeroelastic responses of a high-aspect-ratio wing are investigated based on nonlinear experimental aerodynamic forces. The influences of nonlinear experimental aerodynamic forces and dynamic pressures on the wing loads are studied in the longitudinal and lateral maneuver states. The flight loads of the wing fixed at the root are calculated at different angles of attack. The aileron efficiency with respect to the dynamic pressures and aileron deflections are also studied. The results indicate that the flight loads of the wings vary nonlinearly with the angle of attack and dynamic pressure. Due to the high-lift aerofoil, elastic components are a large portion of the wing loads, especially for small angles of attack and high dynamic pressure condi-tions. The aileron efficiency is significantly affected by aileron deflections, dynamic pressures and angles of attack when the nonlinear experimental aerodynamic forces are used for calculation. In states with high dynamic pressures and large aileron deflections, aileron reversal can occur. The aileron deflection and angle of attack have a nonlinear effect on the aileron efficiency. An efficient method for analyzing the flight loads and structural design of high-aspect-ratio wings is derived in this study, and the analysis can provide insight into the distribution of flight loads for high-aspect-ratio wings.

Counter Rotating Fans- An Aircraft Propulsion for the Future?

In the mid seventies a new propulsor for aircraft was designed and investigated - the so-called PROPFAN. With regard to the total pressure increase, it ranges between a conventional propeller and a turbofan with very high bypass ratio. This new propulsion system promised a reduction in fuel consumption of 15 to 25% compared to engines at that time.A lot of propfans (Hamilton Standard, USA) with different numbers of blades and blade shapes have been designed and tested in wind tunnels in order to find an optimum in efficiency, Fig.1. Parallel to this development GE, USA, made a design of a counter rotating unducted propfan, the so-called UDF, Fig.2. A prototype engine was manufactured and investigated on an in-flight test bed mounted at the MD82 and the B727. Since that time there has not been any further development of propfans (except AN 70 with NK 90-engine, Ukraine, which is more or less a propeller design) due to relatively low fuel prices and technical obstacles. Only technical programs in different countries are still going on in order to prepare a data base for designing counter rotating fans in terms of aeroacoustics, aerodynamics and aeroelasticities. In DLR, Germany, a lot of experimental and numerical work has been undertaken to understand the physical behaviour of the unsteady flow in a counter rotating fan.

Dynamic Response of Warship Structure under Air Non-contact Explosion

The ship hull is simplified as a free beam with varying sections. Based on hydroelasticity and explosion mechanics theory,mechanical model and kinetic equation for hull girder vibration under non-contact explosion are established. The equation is solved by Wilson-θ algorithm. On the basis of the above principles,a structure kinetics analysis program is compiled. The dynamic response of supposed warship under air explosion is calculated conveniently and quickly. Under the explosion condition designed in the paper,the positive pressure period of non-contact explosion wave is much less than the natural periods of the first four modes of hull girder and the resonance of ship girder overall vibration can be avoided. The ratio of midship maximum moment to ultimate bearing strength under non-contact explosion accelerates with the increment of impact factor.
