1. IntroductionIn recent years, hypersonic vehicles have attracted the attention of researchers for their extremely fast flight speeds, but hypersonic vehicles also face many problems during flight, such as the panel flutter problem. This problem may be more pronounced in the thermal environment generated by hypersonic flights. Panel flutter is a self-excited vibration behavior of the panel structure under the combined effect of aerodynamic, inertial and elastic forces.
