Abstract:

This Australian report discusses a dynamic model which has been developed for use in a small low-speed wind tunnel. A feedback system has been used to drive a control surface in order to suppress flutter. Details of the model and results of preliminary tests are presented. Keywords include Wind tunnel models, and Active Control.
