The application of active control technology to the suppression of flutter was successfully demonstrated during two recent studies in the Langley transonic dynamics tunnel. The first study involved the implementation of an aerodynamic-energy criterion, using both leading- and trailing-edge controls, to suppress flutter of a simplified delta-wing model. Use of this technique resulted in an increase in the flutter dynamic pressure of approximately 12 percent for this model at a Mach number of 0.9. Analytical methods used to predict the open- and closed-loop behavior of the model are also discussed. The second study, which is a joint effort with the Air Force Flight Dynamics Laboratory, was conducted to establish the effect of active flutter suppression on a model of the Boeing B-52 Configured Vehicle (CCV). Some preliminary results of this study indicate significant improvements in the damping associated with the critical flutter mode.
