The effect of a nonlinear energy sink on the gust response of a wing (2024)
Journal Article
Amoozgar, M., Castrichini, A., Garvey, S., Friswell, M., Cooper, J., & Ajaj, R. (2024). The effect of a nonlinear energy sink on the gust response of a wing. Aerospace Science and Technology, 145, Article 108904. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ast.2024.108904

In this paper, the potential effectiveness of a nonlinear energy sink (NES) to absorb the energy from a wing that is vibrating as a result of flying in a gusty environment is investigated. The structural dynamics of the wing is simulated using a rigi... Read More about The effect of a nonlinear energy sink on the gust response of a wing.

The Effect of Thrust Vectoring on Aeroelastic Stability of Electric Aircraft (2024)
Presentation / Conference
Amoozgar, M., Hall, M., Dimitriadis, G., & Cooper, J. E. (2024, January). The Effect of Thrust Vectoring on Aeroelastic Stability of Electric Aircraft. Paper presented at AIAA SCITECH 2024 Forum, Orlando, FL

In this paper, the effect of thrust vectoring of propulsors on the aeroelastic stability of an electric aircraft wing powered up with electric propulsors is investigated. The electric aircraft is composed of six high-lift and one cruise propulsors. T... Read More about The Effect of Thrust Vectoring on Aeroelastic Stability of Electric Aircraft.

A review of control strategies used for morphing aircraft applications (2024)
Journal Article
Parancheerivilakkathil, M. S., Pilakkadan, J. S., Ajaj, R. M., Amoozgar, M., Asadi, D., Zweiri, Y., & Friswell, M. I. (2024). A review of control strategies used for morphing aircraft applications. Chinese Journal of Aeronautics, 37(4), 436-463. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cja.2023.12.035

This paper reviews the various control algorithms and strategies used for fixed-wing morphing aircraft applications. It is evident from the literature that the development of control algorithms for morphing aircraft technologies focused on three main...
