Sparse Identification of Aeroelastic Reduced-Order Models in Transonic Buffeting Flow

Conference AIAA Science and Technology Forum and Exposition AIAA Scitech Forum 2026 · January 1, 2026 Numerical simulation of the transonic shock buffet phenomenon remains a formidable challenge due to its inherent nonlinear and unsteady characteristics. These difficulties are further compounded in three-dimensional configurations and when aeroelastic coup ... Full text Cite

Wall-Modeled Unstructured Single-Step and Simplified Lattice Boltzmann Method for Turbulent Flows in Curved Boundaries

Conference AIAA Science and Technology Forum and Exposition AIAA Scitech Forum 2026 · January 1, 2026 This work presents an efficient unstructured CFD solver based on the Single-Step and Simplified Lattice Boltzmann Method (SSLBM), extended with a wall model to create a wall-modeled USSLBM framework (WM-USSLBM). The solver enables simulations of turbulent ... Full text Cite

Identification of Low-Order Unsteady Aerodynamic Models for Store Release in Transonic Flow

Conference AIAA Science and Technology Forum and Exposition AIAA Scitech Forum 2026 · January 1, 2026 This work investigates two low-order modelling strategies, namely dynamic derivatives and impulse response functions (IRFs), for predicting the quasi-steady/unsteady aerodynamic loads on a store during release into a freestream and, ultimately, more effici ...
