Continued studies have been undertaken to investigate and develop aerodynamic models that predict aircraft response in nonlinear unsteady flight regimes for transport configurations. The models retain conventional static and dynamic terms but replace conventional acceleration terms with indicial functions. In the Subsonic Fixed Wing Project of the NASA Fundamental Aeronautics Program and the In...

The forced vibration of the 2D NASA flutter compressor cascade is numerically simulated in full scale with parallel computation technique. The compressor cascade consists of 9 blades bounded by 2 wind tunnel side walls. The implicit line Gauss-Seidel iteration with dual time stepping is employed. The turbulence is modeled with the Baldwin-Lomax model. A newly developed high resolution efficient...
