Analytical Solution of the Possio Integral Equation for the Sonic Case
Publication: Journal of Aerospace Engineering
Volume 22, Issue 4
Abstract
We present a closed form analytical solution of the Possio integral equation of aeroelasticity for the sonic case , both time-domain and Laplace domain, including a numerical example for the flutter speed, where the flutter mode differs from that for . A noteworthy feature is that the Kutta condition is not satisfied and is not needed for uniqueness of solution.
