De plaats van de wiskundige bij de ontwikkeling van digitale simulatie-systemen voor toepassingen uit de "Computational physics"

NLR mainly performs applied scientific research for use in the aerospace industry. In many cases the product has the form of an information system for the design, production and usage of aerospace vehicles. Within this context, the mathematician contributes, in cooperation with specialists from other disciplines such as aerodynamics, structures,...

A survey of numerical methods for the calculation of inviscid, possibly rotational Euler flows around aeronautical configurations

A survey of numerical methods for the calculation of inviscid Euler flows is presented. This survey has been prepared for AGAKD FDP WGOT: "Test cases for steady inviscid transonic or supersonic flows". The survey is augmented by a short assessment of the usefulness of the methods. For aerodynamic applications, the existing methods are in a...
