Numerical investigation of non-planarity and relative motion for bionic slotted wings
AIP Advances, 2023 Bird wings have split primary feathers that extend out from the wing surface. This structure is called the wingtip slot, which is recognized as a product of bird evolution to improve flight performance. In this paper, numerical simulations based on RANS (

Aerodynamic Design via Control Theory [PDF]
Journal of Scientific Computing, 1988 The purpose of this paper is to propose that there are benefits in regarding the design problem as a control problem in which the control is the shape of the boundary. A variety of alternative formulations of the design problem can then be treated systematically by using the mathematical theory for control of systems governed by partial differential ...
