The hypersonic aeroelastic problem of a double wedge airfoil typical cross-section is studied using three different unsteady aerodynamic loads: (1) third order piston theory, (2) Euler solution, and (3) unsteady Navier-Stokes aerodynamics. Computational aeroelastic response results are obtained, and compared with piston theory solutions for a variety of flight conditions. Aeroelastic behavior is studied for 7 < M < 15 at an altitude of 70,000 feet. A parametric study of offsets and wedge angles is conducted. Piston theory and Euler solutions are fairly close below the flutter boundary, and differences increase with increase in Mach number, close to the flutter boundary. Differences between viscous and inviscid aeroelastic behavior can be substantial. The results presented serve as a partial validation of the CFL3D code for the hypersonic flight regime.
