“…Its main objective is to prove the effective use of the meshless hybrid boundary element method in the subsonic flutter analysis of low-pressure stage turbine blades. 1 Boersma et al carried out a series of experiments on wind turbine blades and observed the coupled mode flutter. This observation verifies the theoretical study of predicting the susceptibility of large wind turbine blades to coupled mode flutter.…”

Stall nonlinear flutter behavior and active control of anisotropic composite blade have been investigated based on piezoelectric actuation. The blade body comprises an elliptical composite host structure and a lightweight honeycomb skin structure. The composite blade with elliptical section is modeled as a thin-walled beam structure with circumferential asymmetric stiffness (CAS) configuration, exhibiting transverse shear deformation, warping restraint effect, and vertical bending, with structural tailoring implemented. The stall-induced flutter suppression and nonlinear aeroelastic effects of linearized dynamic response characteristics of blade incorporating stall nonlinear aerodynamic model are investigated. The nonlinear aeroelastic coupled equations are reduced to ordinary equations by the Galerkin method, with the aerodynamic force decomposed by strip theory. Active feedback control based on boundary moment control strategy is developed to enhance the vibrational behavior and dynamic response to aerodynamic excitation and stabilize structures that might be damaged in the absence of control. Various active feedback control schemes tuned by optimal proportional-derivative (PD) controller are implemented. The excellent control effect is not only confirmed by the time response with its vibration amplitude greatly suppressed but also confirmed by the frequency change and comparison. The research provides a way for rare study of amplitude suppression of stall nonlinear aeroelastic effect of thin-walled composite blade with CAS configuration and piezoelectric patches embedded.
