The wing rock phenomena involves complex, multiple degrees of freedom non-linear dynamics, which results in the aircraft undergoing self-excited limit cycle oscillations (LCO) primarily in the roll axis. Wing rock is an undesirable motion which can occur at relatively low flight speeds when the airc...
