Computation of aeroelastic effects on F-16XL at flight conditions FC70 and FC25

This article presents an aeroelastic study of CAWAPI F-16XL aircraft. The structural model of this aircraft is not publicly available and is therefore replaced by a structural model estimate that is constructed based on data available in public literature. The aeroelastic solution is done using solution for two flight conditions-FC70 and FC25. The primary task is to assess the importance of the aeroelastic effects on the FC70 solution and to assess whether large discrepancies are observed at flight condition FC70 between the computational and experimental data.
