Explicit finite element method for nonlinear flutter analysis of composite panels
https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6197-2418
Abstract This work presents an efficient explicit finite element model for predicting the nonlinear aeroelastic behavior of composite panels in the supersonic regime. The first-order shear deformation plate theory in conjunction with the von Kármán nonlinear strains is used for structural modeling and the linear piston theory is used to model the aerodynamic loads. In order to reduce the computational cost of the simulations, a lumping procedure is employed in the mass and aerodynamic damping matrices of the finite element model. No modal reduction is performed and the central difference method is used for the numerical direct integration in time of the nonlinear equations. The model is verified using results from the literature and it is demonstrated that the lumping procedure drastically reduces the computational cost of the simulations.
Highlights Development of an efficient explicit finite element model for nonlinear panel flutter analysis. Lumped mass and aerodynamic damping matrices drastically reduce the computational cost. Solution of discrete equations of motion is straightforward with diagonal matrices. The nonlinear stiffness matrix does not need to be assembled and stored. No modal reduction procedure is performed.
