Investigation of mixed element hybrid grid-based CFD methods for rotorcraft flow analysis [PDF]
Accurate first-principles flow prediction is essential to the design and development of rotorcraft, and while current numerical analysis tools can, in theory, model the complete flow field, in practice the accuracy of these tools is limited by various ...

An Investigation of Frigate Ship Airwakes by RANS Modelling
The operation of helicopters on-board ships has always been a very complex task owing to the presence of ship air wakes, high velocity gradients, widely varying turbulence length scales as well as the lesser area provided for helicopter operations.

Simulation of the Aerodynamic Interaction between Rotor and Ground Obstacle Using Vortex Method [PDF]
The mutual aerodynamic interaction between rotor wake and surrounding obstacles is complex, and generates high compensatory workload for pilots, degradation of the handling qualities, and performance, and unsteady force on the structure of the obstacles.
