Bálint Vanek, lead researcher at the National Laboratory for Autonomous Systems (ARNL) and Deputy Director of HUN-REN SZTAKI, gave a presentation at the Control Seminar organised by the Electrical & Computer Engineering Department of the University of Michigan on the active testing of technologies to mitigate the flutter phenomenon. He also held discussions with several researchers from the University of Michigan.

The talk discussed the aircraft design, instrumentation and flight testing considerations within the EU H2020 project FliPASED led by HUN-REN SZTAKI, leading to the successful flutter controller tests and aeroservoelastic model validation flight test campaign in May 2023 at DLR’s Cochstedt flight test center. The project advanced the state-of-art in several areas, including aeroelastic modelling, flight testing, control design and implementation, as well as operational modal analysis and model order reduction
