Experimental investigation of the low speed stall flutter of an airfoil

Stall flutter is a nonlinear aeroelastic phenomenon that can affect several types of aeroelastic systems such as helicopter rotor blades, wind turbine blades and highly flexible wings. While the related aerodynamic phenomenon of dynamic Stall has been the subject of many experimental studies, stall flutter itself has rarely been Investigated. This thesis presents a set of experiments conducted on a NACA 0012 airfoil undergoing stall flutter oscillations in a low speed wind tunnel.
