Vibration:
F = G =
F = G
F = F (t )
Aeroelasticity:
F = F (w)
No outside exciting(homogeneous).
There could be dynamic solutions, called self-excited vibration
F = F (w, t )
Dynamic stability
Stability theorem of linear constant-coefficient system
(Liapunovs first method)
x = Tx
t [0, +) x R
State equation
The necessary and sufficient condition of the zero solutions
exponential stability is, all the eigenvalues of T have negative
n
real part. The exponential stability order is the smallest real part.
The relationship between static and dynamic stability
The dynamic stability covers the static stability. That means
the system is static stable but is not always dynamic stable,
otherwise the dynamic stability gives out static stability.
The static stability can be looked as the special case of dynamic
problem. The eigenvalues of static unstable system has nonnegative real part and zero imagine part.

Homework
Please deduct the plunging response when a wing segment with
plunging spring encounters gust. In case of step gust, calculate the
displacement, acceleration response and maximum overload factor.
Please draw the necessary curves and discuss the effects of
plunging stiffness on response.
