Bifurcation Analysis and Sticking Phenomenon for Unmanned Rotor-Nacelle Systems with the Presence of Multi-Segmented Structural Nonlinearity

<i>Whirl flutter</i> is a phenomenon caused by an aeroelastic instability, causing oscillations to propagate in manned or unmanned rotor-nacelle type aircraft. Under the conditions where multi-segmented freeplay are present, complex behaviors can dominate these oscillations and can lead...
