System Modeling and Optimization : Proceedings of the 21st IFIP TC7 Conference

Springer, 2004

This paper initiates a mathematical theory of aeroelasticity centered

to aircraft that limits attainable speed in the subsonic regime.
We develop a continuum mathematical model that exhibits the known
flutter phenomena and yet is amenable to analysis...
