Explanation and discovery in aerodynamics [PDF]
arXiv, 2005 The purpose of this paper is to discuss and clarify the explanations commonly cited for the aerodynamic lift generated by a wing, and to then analyse, as a case study of engineering discovery, the aerodynamic revolutions which have taken place within ...

Inverse design of aerodynamic configuration using generative topographic mapping
Xibei Gongye Daxue Xuebao, 2022 The inverse design method of aerodynamic configuration is hard to give a reasonable pressure distribution, and strongly rely on experience of designers. The method has been difficult to adapt to the needs of modern aircraft design.

Aerodynamics-assisted, efficient and scalable kirigami fog collectors
Nature Communications, 2021 To address the global water shortage crisis, one of the promising solutions is to collect freshwater from the environmental resources such as fog. However, the efficiency of conventional fog collectors remains low due to the viscous drag of fog-laden ...

Evaluation of Aerodynamic Characteristics in Oscillatory Coning Using CFD Methods [PDF]
Proceedings of the 9th European Conference for Aerospace Sciences,
2022, 2022 The wind tunnel rotary-balance testing is widely used in aircraft dynamics to characterise aerodynamics at moderate and high angles of attack during stall and spin regimes. In such experiments an aircraft test model is rotated along the wind-tunnel free-stream velocity vector allowing the measurement of aerodynamic characteristics in steady rotational ...
