Ice accretion is inevitable on fix-wing UAVs (unmanned aerial vehicles) when they are applied to surveillance and mapping over colder climates and arctic regions. Subsequent aerodynamic profile changes have caused the current interest in the better predi...

Tiltrotors permit aircrafts to operate vertically with lift, yet convert to ordinary forward flight with thrust. The challenge is to design a tiltrotor blade yielding maximum lift and thrust that converts smoothly without losing integrity or efficiency. ...

Hypersonic vehicles or engines usually employ complex thermal protecting shells. This sometimes brings multi-physics difficulties, e.g., thermal-aeroelastic problems like panel flutter etc. This paper aims to propose a novel optimization method versus th...

Labyrinth seals are commonly used in turbomachinery in order to control leakage flows. Flutter is one of the most dangerous potential issues for them, leading to High Cycle Fatigue (HCF) life considerations or even mechanical failure. This phenomenon dep...

In aerodynamics, characterizing the aerodynamic behavior of aircraft typically requires a large number of observation data points. Real experiments can generate thousands of data points with suitable accuracy, but they are time-consuming and resource-int...

The flight of a migratory bird-like flapping-wing aircraft is characterized by a low Reynolds number and unsteadiness. The selection of airfoil profiles is critical to designing an efficient flapping-wing aircraft. To choose the suitable airfoil for vari...

With the increasing use of composite materials in aviation, structural aircraft design often becomes limited by stiffness, rather than strength. As a consequence, aeroelastic analysis becomes more important to optimize both aircraft structures and contro...
