A method includes determining, based on flutter data and modal strain energy data, a flutter strain energy distribution of a modeled structure. The method includes identifying, based on the flutter strain energy distribution, regions of the modeled structure that are determined to have a flutter vector strain energy above a threshold. The method includes updating a model to increase a mass, a stiffness, or both, of one or more of the regions to improve a flutter characteristic of the modeled structure. The method further includes providing indicia including instructions for manufacture or modification of the modeled structure to achieve the improved flutter characteristic.
