Improvements to the SADSAM computer program for aeroelasticity analysis

A computer program for calculating the elastic element forces and strain energy distribution for normal mode shapes is presented. The subjects discussed are: (1) revised aerodynamic force representation, (2) flap aerodynamics, (3) chordwise motions and aerodynamic forces, (4) wing-tail interaction, and (5) gust analysis. An aircraft configuration used in sample gust analysis is included.
