Experiments on an airfoil with adjustable pitch and heave under transonic buffet leading to lock-in coupling
This paper presents aeroelastic experiments conducted in the ONERA S3Ch transonic wind tunnel using a supercritical OAT15A airfoil mounted on a rig allowing independent control of pitch and heave degrees of freedom (DOF). The study investigates fluid-structure interaction (FSI) mechanisms and lock-in phenomena between...
