Presents a novel approach to tackle the gust alleviation problem. The authors address the spanwise behaviour of aerodynamic loads, as this is what should be primarily controlled. Because the gust loads are mainly caused by disturbances in the spanwise lift, the aim is at controlling the shape of the lift distribution profile along the span.
