Abstract

See full text

A method for damping aeroelastic modes, including limit cycle oscillations (LCO), is implemented by determining a mass for a tuned mass damper (TMD) based on an modal frequency for a mode having a potentially positive growth rate and attaching a TMD to at least one attachment point with significant motion such that a damping axis of the tuned mass damper is substantially oriented in a direction aligned with the local modal deflection.
