Impact Simulation With an Aircraft Wing Using SPH Bird Model
Journal Title: INCAS BULLETIN - Year 2015, Vol 7, Issue 3
Abstract
The work presents an approach to simulate a model bird-strike on an aircraft wing using Lagrange mesh free method in Autodyn. The presented SPH model has been used to simulate a threedimensional impact of the bird with the aircraft wing, at different angles, at a velocity of 262,22m/ s. The bird was modeled as a fluid cylinder with two hemispherical ends representing a commonly used shape in the numerical studies of bird strike. The main objective was to identify the safe impact velocities for which the wing is not damaged.

Performance evaluation of propulsion systems as LEO deorbiting devices
This paper evaluates the possibility of deorbiting a launch vehicle upper-stage at end-of-mission from low Earth orbit, by using an additional propulsion system as a means of achieving deorbiting and complying with the “...
An Interpretation of the “Black Energy” in Universe by Using a Hydro-Dynamical Analogy with Newton Gravity
There are arguments proving that what we see now as “normal energy” (including the equivalent mass-energy) represents only 5% of the total energy of the Universe [1]. The rest is invisible meaning that no widely accepted...
A Mathematical and Numerical Model for the Analysis of Hybrid Rocket Motors
The hybrid rocket motors (HRM) use a two-phase propellant system. This offers some remarkable advantages but also arises some difficulties like the neutralization of their instabilities. The non-acoustic combustion insta...
Analysis of entropy production in some enclosed subsystems where spontaneous processes take place
It is well-known that every spontaneous process occurring in an isolated system is accompanied by increasing entropy. The goal of this paper is to show that if the system is made of several subsystems, the entropy produc...
Flow visualization techniques, new developments and modernization of the existing Schlieren system in the Trisonic Wind Tunnel
