The nonlinear flutter analysis shows that the most important modes contributing to the flutter are the first vertical bending mode, the first chordwise bending mode, and the first torsion mode, whose frequencies drop by 23.6%, 22.6%, and 9.6%, respectively.

Aeroelastic Optimization Design for High-Aspect-Ratio Wings with Large Deformation

In the trailing edge region, the outer layer of the sheet material would be solid for aerodynamic and fabrication reasons and then cooled via chordwise channels located in the inner layer of the skin.

Both propeller blades exhibited chordwise scratches.

To address this, Cirrus extended the wing panels chordwise back from the leading edge, providing more active fluid flow area.

Cirrus's new TKS: de-icing kicked up: we're not sure if the known icing approval matters much. But with prodigious flow rates and clever integration, this de-icing package is as good as it gets

They both exhibited S-shaped bending, leading edge damage and chordwise scratching consistent with engine power being produced at impact.

Dark Acceleration: When taking off at night with few visual cues, our internal gyros may tell us to push the nose down

The influences of different parameters and coupling between chordwise and flapwise bending modes on the natural frequency were investigated.

Prop overhauls: it's all your fault: well, maybe not entirely. But proactive midstream clean and reseals can make the inevitable prop major a little easier to swallow

They exhibited leading-edge gouging and chordwise scratching.

Single-Stage Go-Around: When close to the runway, immediately adding full power during a go-around can mean losing control

We define that the spanwise direction is [e.sup.0.sub.x], the chordwise direction is [e.sup.0.sub.y], and the thickness direction is [e.sup.sub.z].

Nonlinear Dynamics of the High-Speed Rotating Plate

Moving aft chordwise or as the wing reaches progressively higher angles of attack, the boundary layer begins to separate from the wing surface.

Vortex generators: high-value safety enhancers: our trials and reader reports confirm manufacturer claims. VGs lower stall speed and VMC for twins and improve low speed handling in singles

The propeller did not exhibit chordwise abrasions or leading edge nicks consistent with rotation.

Negligent Maintenance: Even if an airplane doesn't fly much, it still needs to be inspected and maintained, especially as it ages

This study investigated the effect of blade root chord length and blade taper (i.e., in both the chordwise and lengthwise directions simultaneously) on the control effort of the FCS of a helicopter, as well as on the closed-loop responses, is investigated.
