A two-dimensional incompressible, inviscid, quasi-steady aerodynamic model is coupled to the active structural model.

Abstract:
The research presented focuses on investigating the use of Cross-Flow Fan (CFF) as a high-lift device for a Short Take-off and Landing (STOL) aircraft. The wing-embedded fan performance analysis is mostly addressed from an aerodynamic perspective and focuses on using such Active Flow Control (AFC) technology in the conceptual aircraft design process. In particular, the design trade study of an aircraft featuring the fan as a high-lift device applied to a conceptual design of a medium-range multi-purpose aircraft is performed. A sensitivity analysis is employed to investigate the impact of the

Abstract:
Hybrid laminar flow control or HLFC design is a complex and multi-disciplinary process, which demands a thorough understanding of all aspects from a global systems viewpoint. The objective of the paper is to present a preliminary design of important components of an HLFC system that helps in quick assessment of conceptual system architectures. This is important to evaluate feasibility, system performance, and overall aircraft benefits at early stages of system development. This paper also discusses the various important system requirements and issues concerning the design of active HLFC system

Abstract:
This work outlines a cohesive approach for the design and implementation of a genetically optimized, active aeroelastic delta wing. Emphasis was placed on computational efficiency of model development and efficient means for optimizing sensor and actuator geometries. Reduced-order models of potential-flow aerodynamics were developed for facilitation of analysis and design of the aeroelastic system in the early design phase. Using these methods, models capturing “95% of the physics with 8% of the modeling effort” can be realized to evaluate various active and passive design considerations. The

The present global energy economy suggests the use of renewable sources such as solar, wind, and biomass to produce the required power. The vertical axis wind turbine is one of wind power applications. Usually, when the vertical axis wind turbine blades are designed from the airfoil, the starting torque problem begins. The main objective of this research is to numerically simulate the combination of movable vanes of a flat plate with the airfoil in a single blade configuration to solve the starting torque problem.

Abstract:
The statically unstable airbreathing hypersonic vehicle requires a high-bandwidth controller to control the instability, which results in intricate interactions among the aerodynamics, the low-frequency structural modes, and the flight control system. Especially, the structural frequencies are uncertain and time-varying, which further raises the difficulty of controller design. In this paper, two adaptive aeroservoelastic mode stabilization methods are proposed. First, the condition of phase stabilization is given under the linear active disturbance rejection control framework to realize the s

This paper reports a new simulation technique for an aeroelastic system which responds to random external forces. Since the aeroelastic system including the effects of unsteady aerodynamics is ordinarily described in the frequency domain, the Inverse Discrete Fourier Transform (IDFT) can be utilized to simulate its random response. The response caused by the external random noise is calculated through a transfer function first in the frequency domain and then converted to the time domain.

Abstract:
The control of flow separation on aerodynamic surfaces remains a fundamental goal for future air transportation. On airplane wings and control surfaces, the effects of flow separation include decreased lift, increased drag, and enhanced flow unsteadiness and noise, all of which are detrimental to flight performance, fuel consumption, and environmental emissions. Many types of actuators have been designed in the past to counter the negative effects of flow separation, from passive vortex generators to active methods like synthetic jets, plasma actuators, or sweeping jets.

The kinematics and aerodynamics of Rhinolophus ferrumequinum, R. hipposideros, Myotis nattereri, M. mystacinus, Plecotus auritus and Eptesicus serotinus in horizontal flight at various flight speeds are described. Three kinematic patterns can be recognized. At low speeds M. nattereri, M. mystacinus and P. auritus use a ‘tip-reversal’ upstroke in which thrust is generated during the backward ‘flick’ of the chiropatagium. R. hipposideros also uses this kinematic pattern, but does not appear to generate thrust during the upstroke. Both R. ferrumequinum flying at 3.12 m s−1 and E. serotinus flying

Glow discharge at atmospheric pressure using a dielectric barrier discharge can induce fluid flow, and can be used for active control of aerodynamics and heat transfer. In the present work, a modeling framework is presented to study the evolution and interaction of such athermal nonequilibrium plasma discharges in conjunction with low Mach number fluid dynamics and heat transfer. The model is self-consistent, coupling the first-principles-based discharge dynamics with the fluid dynamics and heat transfer equations. Under atmospheric pressure, the discharge can be simulated using a plasma–fluid
