Biofluiddynamic scaling of flapping, spinning and translating fins and wings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Organisms that swim or fly with fins or wings physically interact with the surrounding water and air. The interactions are governed by the morphology and kinematics of the locomotory system that form boundary conditions to the Navier–Stokes (NS ...

Could the Coand\u{a} effect be called the Young effect? The understanding of fluid dynamics of a legendary polymath

open access: yes, 2011
A paper of Thomas Young (1773-1829) on the behavior of streams of air makes a good starting point for discussing the not always fair, sometimes serendipitous, association of a physical phenomenon with its discoverer.

A Workflow to Accelerate Microstructure‐Sensitive Fatigue Life Predictions

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study introduces a workflow to accelerate predictions of microstructure‐sensitive fatigue life. Results from frameworks with varying levels of simplification are benchmarked against published reference results. The analysis reveals a trade‐off between accuracy and model complexity, offering researchers a practical guide for selecting the optimal ...

Experimental Parameter Identification and an Evaluation of the Impact of Tire Models on the Dynamics of Fixed-Wing Unmanned Aerial Vehicles

open access: yesAerospace
Because fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) require high-speed taxiing for takeoff and landing, the aircraft’s stability during taxiing is critical.

Aerodynamic characteristics of general aviation at high angle of attack with the propeller slip stream.

open access: yesJournal of the Japan Society for Aeronautical and Space Sciences, 1985
The aerodynamic characteristics of the FA-300 business aircraft at high angle of attack with the propeller stream are described. The FA-300 offers two types, FA-300-700 for 340 HP, and -710 for 450 Hp of the engine. The effects of the propeller slipstream on the high angle of the attack are discussed.

Dynamic analysis of road vehicle-bridge systems under turbulent wind by means of Finite Element Models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
When an automobile passes over a bridge dynamic effects are produced in vehicle and structure. In addition, the bridge itself moves when exposed to the wind inducing dynamic effects on the vehicle that have to be considered.
