ASSIGNMENT 2

Q1_i. Determine the flutter speed flow chart

Figure 1: Flow Chart

Q1_ii. Determine the flutter speed

The flutter speed was determined by looking at the damping ratio data.

Figure 2: Graph of frequencies and damping vs. speed
Flutter speed = 63 m/s as one of the mode of damping reach zero.
From the graph we could see that one of the modes of damping ratio is touching zero in increasing of air
speed. The wing is losing its ability to damp as the airspeed increase. Thus, we could say that the wing
will start to flutter when the damping ratio is reaching zero upwards.

Q1_iii. Varying the position of the flexural axis on the flutter speed

Figure 3: Flutter speed vs. Flexural axis position graph

The graphs shows that the increment of flexural axis position from the leading edge will decrease the
flutter speed.

Q1_iv. M_theta_dot vary with flutter speed

Figure 4: Flutter speed vs M_theta_dot graph

Q2_i. Determine flutter speed using k method flow chart

Figure 5: Flowchart

Q2_i. Determine flutter speed using k method

Figure 6: Vg graph

Flutter speed = 68.34 m/s as it reach zero of g.
From comparison the value is different for different methods. The value from k method shows that the
flutter speed is much higher. This may come from the way of solving is by not using extrapolation. Thus,
the value may give a big different. We could conclude that all above solution should use extrapolation
technique to give more accurate results.
