Abstract

This is an introduction and overview of the work that has been done in nonlinear aeroelasticity prior to the last decade. Many of the issues discussed here are still under active investigation. Of particular interest are the limit cycle oscillations that may occur once the dynamic stability (flutter) boundary has been exceeded.
