Which mechanism causes flutter in aircraft wings specifically near the speed called Vc, design maneuvering speed?

💡 Explanation

Flutter arises because aeroelastic instability (modal coupling), causing vibration amplitude to increase until structural failure. This occurs due to interactions of aerodynamic forces and elastic deformation, resulting in destructive oscillations rather than merely turbulent flow, therefore flutter.
