Studies in Nonlinear Aeroelasticity /

This book is concerned with the stability and motion of flexible structures surrounded by a flowing fluid. Much of the available literature is concerned with linear concepts and models. Recent work has begun to consider the limitations and extensions of such models. Here special emphasis is given to...
