The response to wind gusts of a 1/10-scale hingeless helicopter rotor model in hovering and forward flight is studied experimentally through wind tunnel testing. The experimental program involving design, construction, and testing of a five-foot-diameter rotor utilizing either three NACA 0012 planform blades or one operable blade with two dummy blades is described. The rotor design is such that the the torsional stiffness of the blade assembly as well as the blade chordwise center-of-gravity location can be varied during the various phases of the test. Wind tunnel testing incorporates the variation of wind tunnel speed and the application of variable frequency, sinusoidal waveform gusts. The flap, lag, and torsional response of the rotor in its various configurations was measured and compared with theoretical predictions. (Author).

The vertical gust response and its alleviation for hingeless helicopter rotor blades in cruising flight is studied theoretically and experimentally. An evaluation is performed of the effectiveness of torsional stiffness variation in conjunction with chordwise center-of-gravity shift in alleviating the blade flapping response to decrease the root bending moment. The theoretical analysis utilizes the equations of motion of hingeless rotor blades exposed to vertical gusts in forward flight for the flapping, lagging, and elastic and rigid pitch degrees of freedom. The equations include the effect of steady-state deflections in the trim conditions and various hingeless rotor configurations such as precone, droop and torque offset as well as chordwise center-of-gravity shift and aerodynamic center offset. The experimental program involves the wind tunnel tests of a five-foot diameter rotor subject to a sinusoidal waveform gust. Testing involves variation of the blade chordwise center-of-gravity location, the blade torsional stiffness, rotor advance ratio, and vertical gust frequency. (Author).

Analysis and testing were conducted in the Langley Transonic Dynamics Tunnel to investigate the aeromechanical stability of a soft inplane hingeless rotor model. Rotor stability data were obtained in hover and in forward flight up to an advanced ratio of 0.35. Model rotor parameters evaluated were blade sweep and droop, pre-cone of the blade feathering axis, and blade pitch-flap coupling. Data obtained during these tests are presented without analysis. Keywords: Hovering; Hingeless helicopter rotor dynamics; Helicopter rotor blades; Ground resonance.
