A Sensor-Based Laminar-Turbulent Wall-Stress Model for Large Eddy Simulation

Wall-modeled large eddy simulations (WMLES) are becoming an increasingly viable tool to study complex unsteady turbulent flows. Conventional wall models applied in these simulations are however not applicable to laminar boundary layers. While these encompass only a tiny fraction of the total surface area, erroneous predictions in this region of...

Towards high-fidelity aero-servo-elasticity analysis

The development of a high-fidelity fluid-structure interaction tool for the simulation of aircraft flight dynamics in the subsonic flow regime is presented. The tool combines a high-fidelity large-eddy simulation code with an immersed boundary method, a multibody solver and a loose coupling scheme between fluid and solid. The development of the...
