In the quest for making aircraft more energy-efficient, configuration, and primarily the arrangement and quality of aerodynamic surfaces, play a relevant role. In a previous comparative study by the authors, it was shown how to obtain a significant incre...

An explicit 3D Finite Element (FE) model was developed in the LS-Dyna code to simulate the laser shock paint stripping on aircraft aluminum substrates. The main objective of the model is to explain the physical mechanisms of the laser shock stripping pro...

Notwithstanding the interest in the three-surface concept shown by aircraft designers, this configuration was not thoroughly investigated in conjunction with the adoption of two-elevator surfaces, on both canard and tail. In fact, the inclusion of an add...

Integrating a fan with a boundary layer ingestion (BLI) configuration into an aircraft fuselage can improve propulsion efficiency by utilizing the lower momentum airflow in the boundary layer developed due to the surface drag of the fuselage. As a conseq...

Ice accretion is a phenomenon whereby super-cooled water droplets impinge and accrete on wall surfaces. It is well known that the icing may cause severe accidents via the deformation of airfoil shape and the shedding of the growing adhered ice. To preven...
