Numerical Simulation of Rotor–Wing Transient Interaction for a Tiltrotor in the Transition Mode
Tiltrotor aerodynamic interaction, especially in the transition mode, is a necessary consideration for tiltrotor aerodynamics, and structural design and optimization. Previous studies have paid much attention to the helicopter mode.

An Aerodynamic Assessment of Vehicle-Side Wall Interaction using Numerical Simulation [PDF]
The effects of induced pressure loads from a realistic vehicle onto the surface of a road-side wall are numerically investigated. Parameters such as vehicle speeds, vehicle-wall separation distances and the effects of inclined walls are examined to ...

The aerodynamic effects of wing–wing interaction in flapping insect wings [PDF]
We employed a dynamically scaled mechanical model of the small fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster (Reynolds number 100–200) to investigate force enhancement due to contralateral wing interactions during stroke reversal (the 'clap-and-fling').

Multirotor Drone Aerodynamic Interaction Investigation
Aerodynamic interactions between rotors are important factors affecting the performance of in-plane multirotor Unmanned Air Vehicles (UAVs) or drones, which are the majority of small size UAVs (or mini-drones).

Numerical Investigation of the Rotor-Rotor Aerodynamic Interaction for eVTOL Aircraft Configurations
The rotor-rotor aerodynamic interaction is one of the key phenomena that characterise the flow and the performance of most of the new urban air mobility vehicles (eVTOLs) developed in the recent years.
