In the present work, the main features of primary vortices and the vorticity concentrations downstream of vortex bursting in crossflow plane of a delta wing with a sweep angle of Λ=70° were investigated under the variation of the sideslip angles, β. For the pre-review of flow structures, dye visualization was conducted. In connection with a qualitative observation, a quantitative flow analysis was performed by employing Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV). The sideslip angles, β were varied with four different angles, such as 0°, 4°, 12°, and 20° while angles of attack, α were altered between 25° and 35°. This study mainly focused on the instantaneous flow features sequentially located at different crossflow planes such as x/C=0.6, 0.8 and 1.0. As a summary, time-averaged and instantaneous non-uniformity of turbulent flow structures are altered considerably resulting in non-homogeneous delta wing surface loading as a function of the sideslip angle. The vortex bursting location on the windward side of the delta wing advances towards the leading-edge point of the delta wing. The trajectory of the primary vortex on the leeward side slides towards sideways along the span of the delta wing. Besides, the uniformity of the lift coefficient, C_L over the delta wing plane was severely affected due to unbalanced distribution of buffet loading over the same plane caused by the variation of the sideslip angle, β. Consequently, dissimilarities of the leading-edge vortices result in deterioration of the mean value of the lift coefficient, C_L.

본 연구에서는 고고도 장기 체공 항공기 날개의 스팬과 주날개보의 형상을 설계변수로 동시에 고려하는 공력-구조 동시 설계를 수행하였다. 이 때 공기역학적 성능 최대화와 중량 최소화를 한 번에 수행하기 위해 다목적 최적화를 이용하였다. 설계 대상이 된 날개는 구조적 대변형이 발생되므로 전산유체역학과 유한요소법을 이용하여 비선형 정적 공탄성 해석을 수행하였다. 설계를 위한 해석에 요구되는 계산 비용을 감소시키기 위해 반응면을 구성하였으며 이를 위해 실험계획법이 이용되었다. 또한 본 연구에서는 대변형이 발생되지 않은 형상과 대변형이 발생한 형상의 공력 성능을 비교하여 대변형이 발생하는 경우 설계를 위해 반드시 변형이 고려되어야 함을 검증하였다.

Aerodynamic characteristics of Coleoptera species of Epilachna quadricollis and Allomyrina dichotoma are experimentally and numerically investigated. Using digital high speed camera and smoke wire technique, we visualized the continuous wing kinematics and the flight motion of free-flying coleoptera. The experimental visualization shows that the elytra flapped concurrently with the main wing both in the downstroke and upstroke motions. The wing motion of Epilachna quadricollis was captured and analyzed frame by frame to identify the kinematics of the wings and to implement it in the movement of a model wing (thin plate) in the simulation. The two-dimensional simulation of Epilachna quadricollis hovering flight was performed by assuming the wing cross section shape as a thin plate, even though most of insect's wings are made of curved corrugated membrane. The effect of Reynolds number are investigated by the simulation. Meanwhile, in order to investigate the role and effect of elytra, the flow visualization of Allomyrina dichotoma was carried on using smoke wire visualization technique. Here, we confirmed that the vortex generated by elytra due to its movement is strongly influence the vortex dynamic generated by hind wings.

Numerical simulations are made for the three-dimensional flow around a wing in ground effect craft haying the complex geometry. A numerical tool is developed for the primary design of hull and wing shape of practical Wing-In-Ground effect(WIG) stop. The finite-difference method is utilized to descretize the governing equations and pressure field is obtained by using Marker-And-Cell(MAC) method. The air and water flows are simultaneously simulated in the time-marching solution procedure for the Navier-Stokes equation. The porosity technique and the density function are devised for the implementation of the three-dimensional body-boundary and the free-surface conditions, respectively. In this paper, a craft is modeled simply by three blocks containing a wing mounted on a main body horizontally, with the endplate. The numerical calculations of a WIG advancing in a calm water are performed and the WIG-generated wave profiles are also obtained. In the final paper, details of the numerical methods employed for the present study and calculated results are discussed.

본 연구에서는 회전익 상태에서 이/착륙, 저속 전진비행을 하고, 고정익 상태에서 고속 전진비행을 하는 스마트 무인기 추진시스템을 모델링하고 회전익 모드, 고정익 상태의 고속 비행모드, 팁 제트 노즐과 주 엔진 노즐을 모두 이용하는 혼합모드에 대해 정상상태 성능해석을 수행하였다. 성능해석 결과는 각 비행모드에서 덕트의 손실로 인한 추진 시스템의 운용영역이 제한되는 결과를 보였으며, 비행 마하수 변화에 대한 결과와 비교해 고도의 변화에 대한 해석결과가 더 넓은 영역에서 비행영역을 제한함을 알 수 있었다.

In order to increase endurance flight efficiency of long endurance electric powered UAV, main wing of UAV should have high aspect ratio and low structural weight. Since a spar which consists of thin and slender structure for weight reduction can cause catastrophic failure during the flight, it is important to develop verification method of structural integrity of the spar with the light weight design. In this paper, process of structural analysis using non-linear finite element method was introduced for the verification of structural integrity of the spar. The static strength test of the spar was conducted to identify structural characteristic under the static load. Then, the experimental result of the spar was compared to the analytical result from the non-linear finite element analysis. It was found that the developed process of structural analysis could predict well the non-linear structural behavior of the spar under ultimate load.

In the present study, conceptual design of the main wing for 20 seats WIG{wing in Ground Effect) flight vehicle, which will be a high speed maritime transportation system for the next generation, was performed. The high stiffness and strength Carbon-Epoxy material was used for the major structure and the skin-spar with a foam sandwich structural type was adopted for improvement of lightness and structural stability. As a design procedure for this study, firstly the design load was estimated with maximum flight load, and then flanges of the front and the rear spar from major bending load and the skin structure and the webs of the spars were preliminarily sized using the netting rules and the rule of mixture. In order to investigate the structural safety and stability, stress analysis was performed by Finite Element Codes such as NASTRAN/PA TRAN[6] and NISA II [7]. From the stress analysis results, it was confirmed that the upper skin structure between the front spar and rear spar was very unstable for the buckling. Therefore in order to solve this problem, a middle spar and the foam sandwich structure at the upper skin and the web were added. After design modification, even thought the designed wing weight was a little bit heavier than the target wing weight, the structural safety and stability of the final design feature was confirmed. Moreover, in order to fix the wing structure at the fuselage, the insert bolt type structure with six high strength bolts was adopted for easy assembly and removal.

Aircraft MLG and wing structures have been recognized as fatigue critical structures and exposed to the risk of fatigue crack initiation and propagation. Furthermore, these structures are frequently subjected to serious dynamic loading condition during a Hard Landing which may lead to their failure. Especially, structural integrity of MLG and wing components is decreased as the flight time increased because of the fatigue damage accumulated on the aircraft. In this study, the effects of Hard Landing on the MLG and wing components of aging aircraft were evaluated by using numerical approach. To achieve the aim, a finite element model has been developed and simulations were conducted by varying the landing conditions. As a result, it was revealed that the high stress concentration phenomenon was occurred at the lower Side Brace of MLG. Thereby, the intensified inspection for the lower Side Brace should be considered to prevent unexpected aircraft mishap.

When a natural frequency of the trailing edge of a wing is close to a vortex shedding frequency, an amplitude of the edge oscillation becomes maximal; it makes intensive noise called singing. Motion of the trailing edge may also feedback to the vortex shedding so that self-sustained oscillation appears, and a resonant frequency is locked in some interval of the speed of the incident flow. In this study, we first evaluate main features of oscillating characteristics of the wing. Second we simulate fluid-structure interaction of the wing with a flap using a commercial code, ANSYS-CFX, and investigate lift characteristics in a frequency domain.
