Computational Methods in Aeronautical Fluid Dynamics: 25 (Institute of Mathematics and its Applications Conference Series (New Series)) - Tapa dura

Reseña del editor

The use of numerical modelling and testing is a vital engineering tool in all aspects of the aerospace industry: aerodynamics, heat transfer, and stress and vibration levels. This volume provides an overview of the current state of the art of this research and is designed as a reference for people whose work involves computational fluid dynamics, giving current results of research and an indication of the new directions it might take. Particular topics covered include integral methods, boundary layer and viscous flows, turbulence modelling, vortex dynamics, Navier-Stokes for external aerodynamics, mesh generation and adaptive refinement, and hypersonic flow. Throughout, the emphasis is on real problems arising in aerodynamics and the numerical methods used in their solution.
