Abstract:

During the digital twinning flight test, high-quality flight test data is used to fuse the digital model with the actual flight test data. In order to eliminate the effect of turbulence excitation and improve the accuracy of subsequent signal processing conclusions, a new method for estimating swept frequency response modal parameters is proposed based on the reconstruction of flutter flight test digital twinning data. First, the measured response is reconstructed in the time domain, and it is separated into two parts: the structural response caused purely by the swept and the structural response excited by turbulence. Then, the subspace algorithm is used to identify the modal parameters of the two separated response data respectively. Finally, the proposed method is verified by simulation and measured data. The results show that the proposed method can obtain high-quality test flight data that meets the requirements of virtual-real fusion in digital twins, after data reconstruction, more accurate and reliable identification results can be obtained; at the same time, due to the separation of turbulent response and the unique broadband characteristics of turbulence, the method can also effectively identify modes outside the swept frequency range.

Key words: digital twin flight test, swept excitation, turbulence excitation, signal reconstruction, modal parameter identification
