Abstract : Limit cycle oscillations (LCOs), which result from a Hopf bifurcation, have been a subject of intense study in the field of aeroelasticity. However, it has been recently observed that the presence of fluctuation in the input wind can change the scenario and intermittency can precede the onset of LCOs. In this work, the appearance of intermittency in the oscillation of a flexible plate in fluctuating incoming flow is reported. To explain the phenomena, the role of plate flexibility and wake vortical accumulation in the manifestation of intermittency is investigated
