Irkut’s SSJ-New, the successor to the Superjet 100, is undergoing aeroelasticity testing as part of the preparation for the aircraft’s maiden flight. An initial round of flutter tests was carried out ...
Youre descending at a relatively high speed in calm air and, since there was no forecast for and little chance of turbulence, you let the airspeed climb into the yellow arc. Then you hear a buzzing ...
Modern CFD simulations provide detailed insights. However, especially in the transonic regime, they face physical and modeling limitations. Nonlinear interactions between shock waves and blade ...
The pressure from society and politics on the aviation industry to develop, build and operate energy-efficient and low-noise aircraft is growing. For future aircraft conceps, T-tails are increasingly ...
The Grob G180A business jet prototype that crashed fatally during a demonstration flight in 2006 went out of control when aerodynamic flutter developed in the aircraft's horizontal stabiliser, ...
Fast obstacles in a medium are responsible for striking physical phenomena, such as aerodynamic flutter, Čerenkov radiation and acoustic shock waves. In a hydrodynamic picture, quantum systems exhibit ...
