An analytical method is proposed for the prediction of fluttering of a flexible thin sheet or web swept by fluid flow. It assumes self-excited aeroelastic oscillation of the sheet with infinitesimally small amplitude. The flow and the sheet motion are expressed by distributed vortices over the sheet and the wake, and by bending motions of a number of short segments constituting the sheet. The obtained system of equations determines the flutter limits, the oscillation modes and frequencies. The method treats particularly well the situation of very low mass ratios where the modes are far from those in vacuum and progressive waves are predominant. [S0098-2202(00)01101-9]

Flutter phenomena of flexible thin sheets such as paper swept by wind are studied for a wide range of mass ratios by an analytical method developed by the authors. The analytical results explain well the tendencies found in the experimental data. Furthermore, the flutter behaviors for very low mass ratios are predicted to tend to deviate far from those for ordinarily stiff materials, which are attributed to the effects of both the fluid friction and the added mass effect by surrounding fluid in addition to the ordinary governing effects for higher mass ratios, i.e., elasticity, inertia force, and fluid pressure.
