Numerical Study on Interactional Aerodynamics of a Quadcopter in Hover with Overset Mesh in OpenFOAM [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Interactional aerodynamics of a quadcopter in hover is numerically investigated in this study. The main objective is to understand major flow structures associated with unsteady airloads on multirotor aircraft. The overset mesh approach is used to resolve flow structures in unsteady simulation using the flow solver OpenFOAM.

Aerodynamical Effects in Snow Crystal Growth [PDF]
arXiv, 2009 We review several aspects of aerodynamics that affect the growth, morphology, and symmetry of snow crystals. We derive quantitative estimates for aerodynamical forces that orient falling snow crystals, estimate how air flow around snow crystals affects their growth rates (the ventilation effect), and examine how the combination of orientation and ...
