Investigation of the F117A Vortical Flow Characteristics Preliminary Results
(Aerospace Computational Design Lab, Dept. of Aeronautics & Astronautics, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1992-10)The investigation of the vortical flow around the F117A Stealth Fighter is presented in order to demonstrate the capability to resolve leading edge vortices with an adaptive finite element solver for the Euler equations. ... -
Adaptive Mesh Euler Equation Computations of Vortex Breakdown in Delta Wing Flow
(Aerospace Computational Design Lab, Dept. of Aeronautics & Astronautics, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1993-01)A solution method for the three-dimensional Euler equations is formulated and implemented. The solver uses an unstructured mesh of tetrahedral cells and performs adaptive refinement by mesh-point embedding to increase ... -
System Identification and Active Control of a Turbulent Boundary Layer
(Aerospace Computational Design Lab, Dept. of Aeronautics & Astronautics, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1997-06)An experimental investigation is made into the active control of the near-wall region of a turbulent boundary layer using a linear control scheme. System identification in the boundary layer provides optimal transfer ...
