Advance state of the art in both the DPW and AePW fields while
collaborating and advancing multidisciplinary aerodynamics topics.
A rich knowledge of seven Drag Prediction Workshops and three
Aeroelastic Prediction Workshops will be leveraged.
Structure
- This is a true collaborative effort between the two workshops
and not simply co-location of the two workshops
- Comprised of three to six Technical Working Groups, each of which
investigates a given topic in greater technical detail
- Some Technical Working Groups will be DPW-focused while others will
overlap with the Aeroelastic Prediction Workshop
- At the workshop, the DPW and AePW communities will meet separate
for part of the time and together for a final joint session
- A low barrier to entry will be provided for student participants
Objectives
- To build on the success of Drag Prediction and
Aeroelastic Prediction Workshops
- To provide an impartial forum for evaluating the effectiveness of
existing tools and methods
- To identify areas needing additional research and development
- To develop the infrastructure for future multidisciplinary workshops
General Information
- This
workshop is open to participants worldwide. Efforts will be made to
ensure representation from all areas of industry, academia and
government laboratories.
- Efforts are being
made such that submissions can range from the simpler test cases through
highly-advanced methods.
- Student participation
encouraged through reduced computational requirements and decreased
registration fee. (Graduate and undergraduate students)
- Participation
in the CFD studies is not required to attend the workshop. Everyone is
welcome!
- Open
forums will be included in the workshop to discuss the solutions and
modeling techniques.
- Results
will be made available after the workshop in a report and on the DPW
website.
- A
registration fee will be required for attendance.
- AIAA
membership is not required.

Working Group #1:
Steady Fixed Geometry Working Group
Leads: Ed Tinoco, Raj Nangia, and Olaf Broderson
This is similar to the traditional DPW approach for transonic flow on a static
geometry. This group will concentrate on identifying the reasons for data
scatter that was observed in DPW-VII.
Working Group #2:
Static Aeroelastic Deformation Working Group (with AePW)
Leads: Ben Rider, Stefan Keye, and Garrett Mchugh
Fluid-structure interactions will be calculated and studied in detail. This
group will be comprised of individuals in both DPW and AePW communities with
significant collaboration leading up to the final workshop.
Working Group #3:
Unsteady Aerodynamics/Buffet Working Group (with AePW)
Leads: Brent Pomeroy, Andrea Sansica, Daniella Raveh, and Hadar Ben-Gida
This group seeks to identify nature of pre- and post-buffet flight
regimes with unsteady CFD analysis. Simulations will be performed on both
experimentally-measured deformations and with coupled fluid/structure
interactions. Members of the DPW and AePW communities will be involved.
Working Group #4:
Wind Tunnel Test Environment Working Group
Leads: Melissa Rivers, Ed Tinoco, and Ben Rider
This group seeks to understand the impact of the wind-tunnel environment
when compared to free-air CFD, in particular both forces and moments as well as
surface pressures.
Students
Students, both graduate and undergraduate are encouraged to attend and submit
data for the workshop. Individuals can participate in any of the four working
groups. Efforts are being made to minimize barrier to entry such that students
can attend the workshop and interface with technical experts. Student submissions
do not need to achieve all of the components of a specific Test Case. Instead,
students are welcomed and encouraged to submit whatever data they have generated,
no matter how small the database. A significantly-reduced rate will be charged to
students.
