Abstract  Alaeroelastic system is a complex system which can produce limit cycles oscillation. In this paper, an adaptive fractional-order fuzzy controller is presented to suppress flutter in an alaeroelastic system. The studied system is a kind of nonlinear system with two freedoms (the plunge displacement and the pitch angle). A terminal sliding mode control is proposed, the fuzzy system parameters are updated by fractional-order differential equations and the stability of the closed-loop system is discussed by means of Lyapunov stability theory. Finally, numerical simulations are demonstrated to verify the effectiveness of proposed method.

or integral equations, have received more and more attention [1–6]. Fractional calculus is an extended concept of the classical cases. In [7–15], the dynamical properties of fractional-order systems were discussed. The superiority of a fractional-order system has been more accurately shown in modeling and controlling systems to reach more satisfying specifications. It is well known, in the stability analysis of integer-order systems, the quadratic Lyapunov function is usually used. However, the fractional-order derivative of a quadratic function has a very complicated form [16–19]. So, how to use quadratic Lyapunov function in the stability analysis of fractional-order systems is a challenging work. Limit cycle oscillations (LCO) widely exists in many mechanical and physical systems [20–22]. In these complex systems, the frequency of the LCOs may be very different from eigenfrequencies near the unstable states of equilibrium. For some structures, the LCOs can become extremely dangerous, mitigation of the LCOs were investigated in [23–27]. In [28], limit cycle calculation of nonlinear aeroelastic systems was studied by using a reduced order aeroelastic model. Literature [29] introduces a novel nonlinear method by using limit cycle oscillations that shows greater sensitivity for damage detection versus linear damage detection techniques. Many researchers have focused on the stabilization of aeroelast
