After recalling the general principles of aeroelastic coupling with structural finite element analysis, the simplifying assumptions of static aeroelasticity are explained. The technique of load basis used in a general aircraft structural analysis program is discussed. This technique allows one to separate the big expensive computation of finite element resolutions and theoretical aerodynamic analysis from aeroelastic coupling and flight maneuver computation.
