The aeroelastic behavior of high aspect ratio wings in an incompressible flow is investigated. The nonlinear nonplanar bending-bending-twisting motions of beam theory is used for the structural equations assuming large deformations with small strains, small Poisson effects, inextensional beam theory, and linear elastic material characteristics by neglecting warping and shear deformation. An Unsteady nonlinear aerodynamic static stall model based on the Wagner function is introduced and then is used for determination of aerodynamic loading of the wing. In this aerodynamic model, the static lift curve vs. angle of attack is approximated by a piece-wise curve and for each linear part of this curve a corrected Wagner theory is used. Combining these two types of formulation yields fully nonlinear integro-differentials aeroelastic equations of motion. The governing equations will be solved to predict the nonlinear aeroelastic response of a wing in the stall and post stall regions using Galerkin's method and a numerical method without the need of adding any aerodynamic state-space variables and their corresponding equations. The obtained equations are solved for some test cases and the obtained results are compared with the results given in the literature. Also a study is done to show effects of nonlinear aerodynamic static stall model on the limit cycle oscillations.
