Wing in Ground Effect over a Wavy Surface

Journal Title: INCAS BULLETIN - Year 2018, Vol 10, Issue 2

Abstract

A vortex method has been used to investigate the effect of a wavy ground on the aerodynamic forces acting on a wing that flies in its proximity. The air is considered inviscid and incompressible. The problem is obviously unsteady, and the solutions were found numerically. Key Words:
