Active Flutter Suppression Using MIMO Adaptive LMS Control

Abstract

The purpose of this investigation is to study the potential of an adaptive feedforward controller for active flutter suppression of an unswept flexible wing. Several examples are studied which show that adaptation is rapid enough to successfully control flutter at accelerations in the airstream of up to 15 ft/sec2 for the rigid wing model and 9 ft/sec2 for the flexible wing model. Though the rigid wing model is of academic interest, a comparison of the simulation results for the two wing models has been extremely helpful in evaluating the performance of the adaptive MIMO controller.
