Wing Optimization with Active Load Control: Integrating Maneuver Load Control and Gust Load Alleviation in Wing Structural Optimization of Large Transport Aircraft

Improving the performance of large transport aircraft requires high aspect ratio and lightweight wings, making aeroelasticity an important factor in wing structural design. Active control of aeroelastic loads can be used to improve the aeroelastic behavior of the wing.<br/><br/>Two active load control techniques are considered: Maneuver Load...
