Carrillo Córcoles, X. (author), Mertens, C. (author), Sciacchitano, A. (author), van Oudheusden, B.W. (author), De Breuker, R. (author), Sodja, J. (author)This study presents an aeroelastic wind-tunnel experiment to identify the influence of the wing stiffness and hinge release threshold on the gust load alleviation performance of a folding wingtip design. Five models with different stiffness and tailoring properties are tested, and the wing root bending moment at different conditions is compared...journal article 2023

Mitrotta, F.M.A. (author), Sciacchitano, A. (author), Sodja, J. (author), De Breuker, R. (author), van Oudheusden, B.W. (author)In the present work Robotic Volumetric PIV is applied in a Fluid-Structure Interaction (FSI) investigation. The case studied involves the dynamic response of a flexible aluminium plate subjected to gust excitation. The experiment is carried out in the Open Jet Facility at Delft University of Technology, which is equipped with a gust generator....conference paper 2019
