Unsteady loads for coaxial rotors in forward flight computed using a vortex particle method [PDF]
Recent advances in coaxial rotor design have shown benefits of this configuration. Nevertheless, issues related to rotor-head drag, aerodynamic performance, wake interference, and vibration should also be considered.

Estimation of Airship Aerodynamic Forces and Torques Using Extended Kalman Filter
An airship is a lighter than air, aerial vehicle whose model is based on dynamic, aerodynamic, aerostatic and propulsion forces and torques. Apart from other, aerodynamic forces and toques are difficult to measure.

Aerodynamic performance of scarf inlets [PDF]
A scarf inlet is characterized by having a longer lower lip than upper lip leading to both aerodynamic and acoustic advantages. Aerodynamically, a scarf inlet has higher angle of attack capability and is less likely to ingest foreign objects while the aircraft is on the ground.

Effect of blade geometry on the aerodynamic loads produced by vertical-axis wind turbines [PDF]
Accurate aerodynamic modelling of vertical-axis wind turbines poses a significant challenge. The rotation of the turbine induces large variations in the angle of attack of its blades that can manifest as dynamic stall.
