Stochastic flutter of multi-stable non-linear airfoil in turbulent flow

Stochastic airfoil flutter in an unsteady flow is discussed using the stochastic P-bifurcation method, taking into account potential effects of the longitudinal and vertical turbulent flow. The critical conditions of stochastic P-bifurcation are deduced by stochastic singularity analysis in order to discuss stochastic P-bifurcation phenomena. The results of parameter analysis show that as the turbulent intensity increases, the critical flutter velocity for sharp stochastic airfoil flutter decreases. And the large amplitude vibration comes earlier; an increase in the turbulent scale causes an earlier appearance of the critical velocity for large amplitude stochastic flutter.
