Introduction to the basics and into the methods of Aeroelasticity. An overview of the main static and dynamic phenomena arising from the interaction between structural and aerodynamic loads.

This course is concerned with design and practical stress analysis of typical aircraft structural elements and components It is complemented by calculation exercises and discussion of real-world problems.

Basic theories for structure integrity calculations are presented with focus on strength, stability, fatigue and elasto-plastic structural analysis.Theories and models for one dimesional and planar structures are presented based on energy theorems.
