A novel turbomachinery oriented volumetric parameterization technique is presented. It employs volumetric NURBS along with a coordinate system transformation, retaining axisymmetry and periodicity. Its combination with a GPU‐accelerated flow and adjoint solver is utilized for the shape optimization of a high‐pressure, transonic, turbine stage rotor ...

We document in detail the morphology of adults of the beaver beetle Platypsyllus castoris with modern techniques, and interpret evolutionary changes linked with the specific life style of the beetle in the fur of the beaver. Platypsyllus displays numerous structural specializations which ensure mechanical stabilization, firm anchorage on the host, and ...

The current investigation analyses the convective heat transfer performance, entropy generation, and entransy evaluation of swirl flows generated by distorted radial fins (DRF). As swirl flows and various vortical structures induce large temperature gradients, second law and entransy analyses are necessary to thoroughly evaluate their true ...

The Aerodynamic Characteristics of a Diamond Joined‐Wing Morphing Aircraft
This paper presents a new‐concept aircraft with a diamond joined‐wing morphing configuration, which simultaneously adjusts the sweep angles of both the front wing and rear wings by a telescopic support rod. The compressible Navier‐Stokes equations in the conservative form are solved to analyze the configuration characteristics and the aerodynamic ...

Design Improvement of a BWB Aerodynamic Performance at Cruise and Take‐Off Speeds
As a high‐performance aircraft, BWB (blended wing body) has attracted the attention of many countries around the world. A 300‐seat BWB design is proposed by the Airplane Concept Design Institute of Northwestern Polytechnical University, which is also called SWB. The aerodynamic performance of it is evaluated by CFD (computational fluid dynamics).

Robust fault tolerant control allocation for a modern over‐actuated commercial aircraft
Abstract This paper presents a novel form of control allocation, designed within a sliding mode framework, for the fault tolerant control of over‐actuated systems. The control allocation is designed in such a way as to allow a subset of the actuators to remain inactive under nominal fault‐free conditions.
