Adaptive structural systems in conjunction with multifunctional
materials facilitate technical solutions with a wide spectrum of
applications and a high degree of integration. By virtue of
combining the actuation and sensing capabilities of piezoelectric
materials with the advantages of fiber composites, the anisotropic
constitutive properties may be tailored according to requirements
and the failure behavior can be improved. Such adaptive fiber
composites are very well-suited for the task of noise and vibration
reduction. In this respect the helicopter rotor system represents a
very interesting and widely perceptible field of application. The
occurring oscillations can be reduced with aid of aerodynamic
couplings via fast manipulation of the angle of attack, being
induced by twist actuation of the rotor blade. On the one hand the
sensing properties may be used to determine the current state of
deformation, while on the other hand the actuation properties may
be used to attain the required state of deformation. The
implementation of such concepts requires comprehensive knowledge of
the theoretical context, which shall be illuminated in the work at
hand from the examination of the material behavior to the
simulation of the rotating structure.
