We have been working on ground vibration testing the DarkAero 1 prototype. The objective of this effort is to characterize the vibration mode shapes, natural frequencies, and damping of the airframe. This will help us build a model of the aircraft to predict flutter speeds and ultimately the Vne or never exceed speed of the airplane. 0:00 - Intro 0:52 - Sam Jaeger 1:05 - What is Aeroelasticity? 1:36 - Aeroelasticity Fundamentals 2:54 - Degrees of Freedom & Modes 3:51 - Divergence 4:58 - Flutter 6:45 - Ground Vibration Testing (GVT) 9:25 - Next Steps DarkAero 1 Aircraft - https://www.darkaero.com/aircraft DarkAero Courses - https://www.darkaero.com/courses DarkAero Apparel - https://www.darkaero.com/shop If you enjoyed this video and would like to see more of this type of content, follow along as we work to create the fastest, longest-range aircraft you can build in your garage!
