Blade Flapping Dynamics

Blade Flapping Dynamics is a rotorcraft flight mechanics phenomenon characterized by the vertical out-of-plane motion of rotor blades about a flapping hinge or equivalent structural compliance, enabling the blade to respond to aerodynamic and inertial forces arising from asymmetric inflow, cyclic pitch, and forward flight conditions.
