An experimental investigation of leading-edge vortex augmentation by blowing [PDF]
A wind tunnel test was conducted to determine the effects of over-the-wing blowing as a means of augmenting the leading-edge vortex flow of several pointed-tip, sharp-edged planforms.

Low-speed aerodynamic characteristics of a highly swept arrow wing configuration with several deflected leading edge concepts [PDF]
The effectiveness of leading edge concepts for minimizing or controlling leading edge flow separation was studied. Emphasis was placed on low speed performance, stability, and control characteristics of configurations with highly swept wings.

Subsonic aerodynamic characteristics of interacting lifting surfaces with separated flow around sharp edges predicted by a vortex-lattice method [PDF]
Because the potential flow suction along the leading and side edges of a planform can be used to determine both leading- and side-edge vortex lift, the present investigation was undertaken to apply the vortex-lattice method to computing side-edge suction

Unsteady Aerodynamic Performance of Model Wings at Low Reynolds Numbers [PDF]
, 1993 The synthesis of a comprehensive theory of force production in insect flight is hindered in part by the lack of precise knowledge of unsteady forces produced by wings.

Calculation of vortex lift effect for cambered wings by the suction analogy [PDF]
An improved version of Woodward's chord plane aerodynamic panel method for subsonic and supersonic flow is developed for cambered wings exhibiting edge separated vortex flow, including those with leading edge vortex flaps.

PIAS: A program for an iterative aeroelastic solution [PDF]
A Program for an Iterative Aeroelastic Solution (PIAS) is discussed. This will be a modular computer program that combines the use of a finite-element structural analysis code with any linear or nonlinear aerodynamic code. At this point in time, PIAS has
