The Store Automatic Fixing Equipment operates as an external force acting on fixing the Store during the flight and as a device designed to prevent the Store from being shaken when the aircraft is flying with the Store. In this paper, we derived the mathematical modeling of the Store Automatic Fixing Equipment through the analysis of the operating principles of the Equipment. The gap occurred by the external vibration forces was calculated through the mathematical model and structure analysis. And then the shape and stiffness design of the wedge, i.e., the Store Automatic Fixing Equipment was derived by the mathematical modeling and structural analysis. We made the Store Automatic Fixing Equipment and took the vibration testing under the aircraft flight conditions. We used the load cell to measure the reaction forces acting on the gap between the Store Automatic Fixing Equipment and the Store. The results of the reaction force measurements were compared with the analysis results of the design and the suitability of the Store Automatic Fixing Equipment’s design was verified based on the analysis.

A equivalent stiffness modeling has been performed for extracting the equivalent stiffness properties which are orthotropic elastic model from a large scale wind turbine rotor blade so that structure model can be constructed more simply for the three dimensional static aeroelastic analysis. In order to present the procedure of equivalent stiffness modeling, NREL 5MW class wind turbine rotor having the three stiffness information which are flapewise, edgewise and torsional stiffness was chosen. This method is based on applying unit moment at the tip of the blade as well as fixing all degree of freedom at the blade root and calculating the displacement from the load analysis to obtain the elastic modulus corresponding to equivalent stiffness referred to the NREL reports on blade divided into 5 sections respectively. In addition, one section was divided into 3 parts and the trend functions were used to make the equivalent stiffness model more correctly and quickly. Through the comparison of stiffness between the reference values and calculated values from equivalent stiffness model, the investigation of the accuracy on the stiffness values and the efficiency for constructing the model was conducted.
