Development of an Active Aeroelastic Parametric Wing Apparatus

This paper presents the development and initial characterization of an active, para- metric wing section with aileron and spoiler control surfaces. This wing section is intended to replace the currently used passive wing section setup and facilitate research in active con- trol techniques of aeroelastic phenomena such as flutter, gust load...

On the combined flow and structural measurements via robotic volumetric PTV

This study describes a novel measurement approach for combined flow and structural measurements in wind tunnels using robotic volumetric particle tracking velocimetry (PTV). The measurement approach is based on the application of a particle tracking algorithm on images including flow or structure tracers, where the latter are implemented by...
