Aerodynamic hypothesis for the solution of problems of wing aeroelasticity (Q1326107)

The paper concerns an aerodynamic problem of aeroplasticity. The basic idea is that the integral equation which describes pressure over the surface of the wing may be reduced to a differential equation. Using this approximation and the Kirchhoff-Love hypotheses, the author obtains some simple analytical results in studies of aeroelastic phenomena in an incompressible fluid. The applicability of such an approximation (an integral equation by a differential one) seems to be very problematic.
