The classical unsteady theory of Theodorsen is revisited relaxing some of the major assumptions such as (1) flat wake, (2) small angle of attack, (3) small disturbances to the mean flow components, and (4) time-invariant free-stream. A semi-analytical, geometricallyexact, unsteady potential flow model is developed for airfoils undergoing large amplitude maneuvers. The numerical implementation of the developed model is presented. The unsteady predictions of the developed model are validated against experimental and computational results. Then, the frequency response of the flow dynamics is determined at different angles of attack. While good agreement is shown with Theodorsen’s function at small angle of attack, considerable qualitative and quantitative discrepancies between the obtained frequency response at large angles of attack and Theodorsen’s function are observed.
