Aeroelastic flutter analysis is performed using time-domain simulations of three-dimensional aircraft wings through partitioned coupling of a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) solver and a computational structural dynamics (CSD) solver. In particular, the AGARD 445.6 wing and the associated experimental data are considered to validate and verify the coupled CFD-CSD solver.
