The use of a comprehensive analytical model of rotorcraft aerodynamics and dynamics is described. This analysis is designed to calculate rotor performance, loads, and noise; the helicopter vibration and gust response; the flight dynamics and handling qualities; and the system aeroelastic stability. The analysis is a combination of structural, inertial, and aerodynamic models, that is applicable to a wide range of problems and a wide class of vehicles. The analysis is intended for use in the design, testing and evaluation of rotors and rotorcraft, and to be a basis for further development of rotary wing theories. The report describes the use of the computer program that implements the analysis.
