This $450,000 federal Project Grant awarded by the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) under the Air Force Defense Research Sciences Program (CFDA 12.800) supports research on "Adaptive Flutter Suppression of a Virtually Controlled Aeroelastic Wing Using Active Aerodynamic Distributed Bleed" at Georgia Tech Research Corporation (GTRC), the Office of Sponsored Programs. This three-year research project, with a period of performance from March 15, 2025 to March 14, 2028, aims to develop and evaluate innovative active flow control technologies for suppressing aeroelastic instabilities, or flutter, in highly flexible wing structures. The AFRL's Defense Research Sciences Program funds fundamental and applied research across diverse scientific and engineering domains to maintain technological superiority for the U.S. Air Force and Space Force. GTRC, as a leading non-profit research organization and state institution of higher education, has significant expertise in areas like aerospace systems, high-speed flows, and advanced materials that are relevant to this project.
