2. Propeller-induced Effects on the Aerodynamics of a Small Unmanned Aerial Vehicle
Abstract: The present paper has discussed investigations about the propeller slipstream effects on the aerodynamics of a generic unmanned air vehicle platform in the wind tunnel for a broad advance ratio range. The propeller-induced effects for small unmanned air vehicles are more significantly pronounced than general aviation aircraft, because of their high

6. Avaliação numérica e experimental de um veículo de competição de milhagem. / Numerical and experimental evaluation of a supermileage competition vehicle.
Dentre as competições nas quais estudantes são desafiados a construir protótipos com finalidades específicas, está a de fazer um veículo que transporte uma pessoa e percorrera a maior distância com um litro de combustível. Um dos fatores que contribuem para o consumo é a resistência aerodinâmica, assim prever seus efeitos é essencial para um bom

8. Simulation of viscous flow around a circular cylinder near a moving ground
The objective of this paper is to study the vortex shedding from a circular cylinder near a moving ground; this is done using the Vortex Method. A moving ground has been widely used in the field of experimental vehicle aerodynamics, especially of high-performance racing cars, to properly consider the ground effect on the vehicles aerodynamic. In experimental
