Indicial functions theory
Linear theory
o Aerodynamic coefficients linearized with respect to the state
variables if their variations are smooth functions of those
states.
o The linear step-change response can be convoluted with the
input to predict the output of a linear system, the nonlinear
indicial theory is a generalization of this concept.
Nonlinear theory
o Linear formalism in the form of a generalized superposition
integral, states evolution depends on the entire history of the
motion.
o The aeroelastic response to an arbitrary input can be
constructed by integrating a nonlinear functional, that
involves the knowledge of the time-dependent input and the
indicial response.
