Numerical solutions of the linearized Euler equations for unsteady vortical flows around lifting airfoils [PDF]
A linearized unsteady aerodynamic analysis is presented for unsteady, subsonic vortical flows around lifting airfoils. The analysis fully accounts for the distortion effects of the nonuniform mean flow on the imposed vortical disturbances.

STOL aircraft transient ground effects. Part 1: Fundamental analytical study [PDF]
The first phases of a fundamental analytical study of STOL ground effects were presented. Ground effects were studied in two dimensions to establish the importance of nonlinear effects, to examine transient aspects of ascent and descent near the ground ...

The effect of blade aerodynamic modelling on the prediction of high-frequency rotor airloads [PDF]
Interactions between the blades and vortical structures within the wake of a helicopter rotor are a significant source of impulsive loading and noise, particularly in descending flight.

A finite-difference, frequency-domain numerical scheme for the solution of the linearized unsteady Euler equations [PDF]
A numerical method is developed for solving periodic, three-dimensional, vortical flows around lifting airfoils in subsonic flow. The first-order method, that is presented, fully accounts for the distortion effects of the nonuniform mean flow on the ...

Aerodynamic sensitivities from subsonic, sonic and supersonic unsteady, nonplanar lifting-surface theory [PDF]
The technique of implicit differentiation has been used in combination with linearized lifting-surface theory to derive analytical expressions for aerodynamic sensitivities (i.e., rates of change of lifting pressures with respect to general changes in ...
