Muhtasari	Blade element momentum theory (BEM) is a fundamental method for analyzing rotor performance by combining blade element aerodynamics with momentum conservation. Developed initially by Froude and refined by Glauert and Leishman, BEM decomposes a rotor into radial blade elements, computes local aerodynamic forces, and sums contributions to predict total thrust, torque, power, and efficiency. BEM is standard for helicopter, wind turbine, and propeller design.	Theodorsen flutter analysis is a classical aeroelastic method for predicting the onset of flutter, a self-excited oscillation where aerodynamic forces interact with elastic structural motion to cause rapid growth of oscillations. Developed by Theodore Theodorsen in 1935, the method uses frequency-domain analysis with Theodorsen's function to compute aerodynamic forces on oscillating wings. Flutter speed prediction is essential for aircraft certification and structural design.
