The authors examine the stability properties of a class of nonlinear controls derived via feedback linearization techniques for a structurally nonlinear prototypical two-dimensional wing section. In the case in which the wing section has a single trailing-edge control surface, the stability of partial feedback linearization to achieve plunge primary control is studied. It is shown for this case that the zero dynamics associated with the closed-loop system response are locally asymptotically stable for a range of e ow speeds and elastic axis locations. However, there exist locations of the elastic axis and speeds of the subsonic/incompressible e ow for which this simple feedback strategy exhibits a wide range of bifurcation phenomena. Both Hopf and pitchfork bifurcations evolve parametrically in terms of the e ow speed and elastic axis location. In the case in which the wing section has two control surfaces, the global stability of adaptive control techniques derived from full feedback linearization is studied. In comparison with partial or full feedback linearization techniques, the adaptive control strategies presented do not require explicit knowledge of the form of the structural nonlinearity.
