The objective of this work is to investigate the flutter phenomena experimentally, which will unify high aspect ratio wings design for wind tunnel flutter tests (Dowell and Tang, 2002), cheaper aeroelastic models construction and a procedure used by Sheta, Harrand, Thompson and Strganac (2002) to identify the flutter onset power spectral density versus the frequency. Initially, an experimental model developed by Dowell and Tang (2002) has been considered as a baseline model and, from this point, two new models with different wing configurations were determined, including the slender body at wi

A procedure for the design of a scaled aircraft using linear aeroelastic scaling is developed and demonstrated. Previous work has shown the viability in matching scaled structural frequencies and mode shapes in order to achieve consistent linear scaling of simple models. This methodology is adopted for use on a high fidelity joined-wing aircraft model. Natural frequencies and mode shapes are matched by optimizing structural ply properties and nonstructural mass. A full-scale SensorCraft concept developed by AFRL and Boeing serves as the target model, and a 1/9th span geometrically scaled remot

Flutter is a dynamic instability which can result in catastrophic failures of an air vehicle. Preventing flutter can be an important factor in the aircraft design, affecting the structural design.

Abstract:
Nos últimos anos cresceu o interesse por construir edifícios cada vez mais altos, os quais estampam o poderio tecnológico e econômico das nações. Concomitantemente as estruturas se tornaram mais esbeltas e flexíveis e os fenômenos dinâmicos oriundos da ação do vento, que em edificações baixas não representam grande relevância no carregamento, começam a surgir e apresentar seus efeitos. Desta maneira, é importante conhecer como se desenvolve o escoamento do ar e a distribuição das pressões no entorno destas estruturas. Neste trabalho, caracteriza-se aerodinamicamente, através de dados oriundos

Thesis (S.B.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Mechanical Engineering, 2007.<br>Includes bibliographical references (leaf 30).<br>The study of aerodynamics is very important in the world of cycling. Wind tunnel research is conducted on most of the equipment that is used by a rider and is a critical factor in the advancement of the sport. However, to date, a comprehensive study of time-trial helmets has not been performed. This thesis presents aerodynamic data for the most commonly used time-trial helmets in professional cycling. The helmets were tested at a sweep of yaw angles,

Abstract:
California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo is currently working towards developing a Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) database for future code validation efforts. Cal Poly will complete a wind tunnel test on the Advanced Model for Extreme Lift and Improved Aeroacoustics (AMELIA) in the National Full-Scale Aerodynamics Complex (NFAC) 40 foot by 80 foot wind tunnel at NASA Ames Research Center in the summer of 2011. The development of two measurement techniques is discussed in this work, both with the objective of making measurements on AMELIA for CFD validation. First, the work

碩士<br>國立成功大學<br>航空太空工程學系碩博士班<br>98<br>The usual manner of research into flight performances of an ornithopter is to offer a default flapping-wing path in prior. To achieve a better flapping efficiency and flight performance, we use an artificial intelligence-genetic algorithm in this thesis to find the optimal flapping-wing path under various wind speeds. Recently, most researchers focus on materials, structures and mechanical platforms of flapping-wings. As to stability control, there is few study inspection of optimizing the flapping-wing path intelligently so far. In this thesis, the geneti
