The Aerodynamic Effects of Runback Ice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The objectives of this PhD were to investigate the aerodynamic performance effects due to runback ice accretion with particular interest on the EASA 45 minute hold case in icing conditions. The sponsors, Airbus and Cranfield University collaboratively

Experimental and Numerical Analysis of Incompressible Flow over an Iced Airfoil

open access: yesJournal of Engineering, 2023
Determining the aerodynamic characteristics of iced airfoil is an important step in aircraft design.  The goal of this work is to study experimentally and numerically an iced airfoil to assess the aerodynamic penalties associated with presence of ice on

Effect of cross wind on aerodynamic coefficients of ground vehicles. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The present work investigates the variation of aerodynamic coefficients with the change in the angle of flow. A mathematical equation has been developed for predicting the aerodynamic coefficients, when a vehicle is subjected to crosswind.

Penalizing cartels : the case for basing penalties on price overcharge [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In this paper we set out the welfare economics based case for imposing cartel penalties on the cartel overcharge rather than on the more conventional bases of revenue or profits (illegal gains).

Fuel-burn penalties caused by irregularities in aircraft surfaces (ASTEROID project)

open access: yes, 2018
ASTEROID aids economic decisions on manufacturing/servicing tolerances and repair strategies with easy-to-use tools for the estimation of aerodynamic drag and fuel-burn penalties caused by repair patches poorly rigged control surfaces etc.

Modeling of unsteady aerodynamic loads [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Time-accurate solutions of the Euler or Navier-Stokes equations are still nowadays a computationally expensive approach for applications where a magnitude of parameters has to be investigated. This work focuses on flight dynamics-related studies.

Powered Landing Control of Reusable Rockets Based on Softmax Double DDPG

open access: yesAerospace, 2023
Multi-stage launch vehicles are currently the primary tool for humans to reach extraterrestrial space. The technology of recovering and reusing rockets can effectively shorten rocket launch cycles and reduce space launch costs.

Numerical simulation of airfoil aerodynamic performance under the coupling effects of heavy rain and ice accretion

open access: yesAdvances in Mechanical Engineering, 2016
It has been widely investigated before that both heavy rain and icing conditions can cause severe aerodynamic performance penalties to aircraft in flight; however, aircraft aerodynamics in the presence of both heavy rain and ice accretion has been little

Entropy Minimization Design Approach of Supersonic Internal Passages

open access: yesEntropy, 2015
Fluid machinery operating in the supersonic regime unveil avenues towards more compact technology. However, internal supersonic flows are associated with high aerodynamic and thermal penalties, which usually prevent their practical implementation. Indeed,
