A Study On Boundary Layer Transition Induced By Large Freestream Disturbances
(2013-06-12)
The initial slow viscous growth of the Tollmein-Schlichting wave in a canonical boundary layer transition is absent in bypass and wake-induced transitions. Although there have been a great deal of studies pertaining to ...
Differential Evolution Based Interceptor Guidance Law
(2013-05-29)
Kinematics based guidance laws like the proportional navigation (PN) and many other linear optimal guidance laws perform well in near-collision course conditions. These have been studied thoroughly in the literature from ...
Measurement Of Static Pressure Over Bodies In Hypersonic Shock Tunnel Using MEMS-Based Pressure Sensor Array
(2013-10-08)
Hypersonic flow is both fascinating and intriguing mainly because of presence of strong entropy and viscous interactions in the flow field. Notwithstanding the tremendous advancements in numerical modeling in the last ...
Experimental Study Of Plasma Actuator Characteristics And Optimization Of Configuration
(2013-06-26)
Plasma actuators are devices which function by creating a discharge in air at atmospheric conditions. These devices have been demonstrated to effectively delay flow separation and enhance the lift- drag characteristics of ...
System Identification And Control Of Helicopter Using Neural Networks
(2013-04-29)
The present work focuses on the two areas of investigation: system identification of helicopter and design of controller for the helicopter.
Helicopter system identification, the first subject of investigation in this ...
Structural Modeling And Analysis Of Insect Scale Flapping Wing
(2013-06-04)
Micro Air Vehicles (MAVs) are defined as a class of vehicles with their larger dimension not exceeding 15 cm and weighing 100 gm. The three main approaches for providing lift for such vehicles are through fixed, rotating ...
Novel Finite Element Formulations For Dynamics Of Acoustic Fluids
(2013-05-02)
Fluid-structure interaction (FSI) as the name suggests, is the study of dynamic interaction of both fluid and structure motions. Fluid-structure interaction exists in almost all engineering and science fields. Moreover, ...
