This paper concerns transonic shocks in compressible inviscid flow passing a twodimensional variable-area duct for the complete steady Euler system. The flow is supersonic at the entrance of the duct, whose boundaries are slightly curved. The condition of impenetrability is posed on the boundaries. After crossing a nearly flat shock front, which passes through a fixed point on the boundary of t...

A numerical study is conducted to investigate fluidic control for transonic flow over an open cavity. Numerical results are obtained for the unsteady threedimensional flow with different steady mass injection rates upstream of the cavity. The simulations use a hybrid two-equation turbulence model in the Detached Eddy Simulations (DES) to calculate the flow and acoustic fields. Computational res...

A computational method for accurately predicting the static aeroelastic deformations of typical transonic transport wind tunnel models is described. The method utilizes a finite element method (FEM) for predicting the deformations. Extensive calibratiodvalidation of this method was carried out using a novel wind-off wind tunnel model static loading experiment and wind-on optical wing twist meas...
