The paper is focused on the design and development of the system simulating nonlinear attachment of the aileron actuation on the aeroelastic demonstrator. The system is based on the concept of the digitally controlled additional stiffness, activated by the real time control law system controlling the required ratio of the force and deformation. The solution is based on the electromagnetic exciter. The nonlinear force is simulated by means of the system of an exciter and the deformation sensor. The active control system is independent of the excitation system. It adds the force ensuring the required characteristics and it allows to simulate the additional stiffness, damping or mass. Doing this, it is possible to adjust the selected vibration mode by controlling the force and obtain the required nonlinear characteristics. In the second order, there is also a constant influence of the exciter mass, stiffness and damping. The simulation of the linear, quadratic and cubic additional stiffness were verified.
