Classical flutter analysis of composite wind turbine blades including compressibility Farsadi, Touraj; Kayran, Altan (Wiley, 2020-08-01) For wind turbine blades with the increased slenderness ratio, flutter instability may occur at lower wind and rotational speeds. For long blades, at the flutter condition, relative velocities at blade sections away from th...
Reduced order nonlinear aeroelasticity of swept composite wings using compressible indicial unsteady aerodynamics Farsadi, Touraj; Rahmanian, Mohammad; Kayran, Altan (Elsevier BV, 2020-01-01) Nonlinear dynamic aeroelasticity of composite wings in compressible flows is investigated. To provide a reasonable model for the problem, the composite wing is modeled as a thin walled beam (TWB) with circumferentially asy...

NASTRAN SOL200 optimization capabilities. Structural design process starts from conc...
AEROELASTIC MODELING AND ANALYSIS OF HIGH ASPECT RATIO WINGS WITH DIFFERENT FIDELITY STRUCTURAL MODELS Çiçek, Gökçen; Kayran, Altan (2019-11-11) This paper is concerned with the aeroelastic modeling and analysis of high aspect ratio wings with large torsional deflections with different fidelity structural models. The approach for structural modeling presented here...
AN INVESTIGATION ON DEVELOPMENT OF A PREDICTION MODEL FOR FATIGUE LIFE OF OPEN HOLE SPECIMENS WITH DOUBLE THROUGH THE THICKNESS CRACKS USING RESPONSE SURFACE METHODOLOGY Shabestari, Sohrab Heidari; Kayran, Altan (2019-09-18) In this study, a model for predicting the life of open hole specimens with a double through the thickness fatigue cracks emanating from the fastener hole walls is suggested. The model predicts the life of 2024-T3 aluminum ...
A Comparison Study On Strength Analysis Of Composite Repair Adhesive Zone By Analytical Methods And Abaqus Cohesive Zone Modelling Techniques Ekren, Mustafa; Kayran, Altan (2019-09-18) Prediction of the failure in composite repair is a widely studied subject in the literature due to the increasing importance of analysis over the expensive testing. Interlaminar failure is one of the most common failure mo...
Development of Bolted Flange Design Tool Based on Artificial Neural Network Yıldırım, Alper; Akay, Ahmet Arda; Gülaşık, Hasan; Çöker, Demirkan; Gürses, Ercan; Kayran, Altan (ASME International, 2019-7-17) <jats:p>Finite element analysis (FEA) of bolted flange connections is the common methodology for the analysis of bolted flange connections. However, it requires high computational power for model preparation and nonlinear ...
