A Multi Level Monte Carlo Algorithm for the Treatment of Geometrical and Operational Uncertainties in Internal and External Aerodynamics

Fabio Nobile, Pénélope Leyland, Michele Pisaroni

In this work we present an efficient Multi Level Monte Carlo (MLMC) algorithm capable of propagating operational uncertainties, due to atmospheric variability of external aerodynamics flows and geometrical uncertainties due to manufacturing tolerances and ...

An anisotropic adaptive finite element algorithm for transonic viscous flows around a wing

Marco Picasso, Wissam Hassan

An adaptive finite element algorithm to compute transonic viscous flows around a wing is presented. The adaptive criteria is based on an anisotropic error estimator in the 115 semi-norm, justified for an advection-diffusion problem with stabilized finite e ...

Aeroeleasic Investigation of an Annular Transonic Compressor Cascade: Experimental Results

Peter Ott, Virginie Anne Chenaux, Achim Zanker

A reliable determination of the unsteady aerodynamic loads acting on the blades is essential to predict the aeroelastic stability of vibrating compressor cascades with accuracy. At transonic flow conditions, the vibration of the shock may change the blade ...
