Aeroelastic optimization has become an indispensable component in the evaluation of
divergence and flutter characteristics for plated/shell structures. The present paper intends to …

For multi-scale materials, the interplay of material and design uncertainties and reliability-
based design optimization is complex and very dependent on the chosen modeling scale …

With the growing popularity of composite materials in aeronautics, the study of the influence
of their anisotropic properties has been extended from the classical structural problems to …

In this paper, the stochastic aeroelastic stability analysis of a composite high aspect ratio
wing with various elastic couplings is investigated. The wing consists of a rectangular spar …

Recent results in the literature highlight the impact of nonlinear inertial forces on the post-
flutter limit cycle oscillation (LCO) characteristics of highly deflected structures in supersonic …

Composite materials allow to tailor the elastic properties of a structure. In aeroelasticity, this
opens up the possibility to passively enhance the coupled aerostructural characteristics. In …

The main purpose of this work is the aeroelastic optimisation of composite laminates.
Composite laminates have become a subject of interest in the past decades due to their high …

Reliability-based design optimization of composite laminates was performed with
uncertainty in ply orientation. This work proposes a new iterative methodology that links two …

With the growing popularity of composite materials in aeronautics, study of the influence of
their anisotropy on the aeroelastic behaviour of various structures is imminent. This type of …

N this thesis, we bring new physical insights into parametric instabilities that can occur in
dynamical systems with a natural cycle which natural time scale could be periodically …
