Not only were CFD sims cheaper than wind tunnel time, but they were also much faster at iterating. Early design work is now done in silico before being validated with scale models in a wind tunnel, as ...

Computational fluid dynamics (CFD), the numerical prediction of physical fluid flow regimes, is increasingly being applied to the cardiovascular system, where it allows for the investigation of ...

Robyn Macdonald is pushing the frontiers of extremely high speed research: hypersonics. A new assistant professor in the Ann and H.J. Smead Department of Aerospace Engineering Sciences at the ...

Comparing the accuracy of two meshing workflows when dealing with complex blade geometries.

Korean Register (KR) has published the "Numerical Calculation Guidelines for the Determination of the Attained EEDI," ...

Researchers combined two modal decomposition techniques to better understand flow patterns inside the left ventricle that may ...

More powerful chips are enabling chips to process more data faster, but they’re also having a revolutionary impact on how that data can be used. Simulations that used to take days or weeks now can be ...

Credit: ENGRT project WEST PALM BEACH, Florida–Wind tunnel tests of an advanced tiltrotor concept developed by Leonardo have confirmed double-digit gains in aerodynamic efficiency predicted by ...

Research in fluid mechanics and aerodynamics includes fluid-structure interactions, unsteady fluid flows, phase-based analysis of fluid flows, rarefied gas flow, particle flow simulation, aerodynamic ...
