  1. 21. Venturi Undertray : KTH Bachelor Thesis Report

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Selma Boudali; Mattias Olausson; [2020]
    Keywords : Race car aerodynamics; undertray; Venturi effect; Formula student; CFD analysis; Topology optimization.; Aerodynamiken på racerbil; underrede; Venturi effekt; CFD analys; Topologioptimering.;

    Abstract : This bachelor thesis aims to describe the work performed for the design of the undertray for the Kungliga Tekniska Högskolan Formula Student(KTHFS) race car. The goal was to achieve an aerodynamically optimized undertray design that follows the regulations of the competition and the targets set by KTHFS concerning the weight, the size, the materials needed for its manufacture and costs.

  2. 22. Supersonic Retro Propulsion Flight Vehicle Engineering of a Human Mission to Mars

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Rymdteknik

    Author : Hanna Marklund; [2019]
    Keywords : Supersonic retro propulsion; SRP; Mars; Human mission; Inflatable heat shield;

    Abstract : A manned Mars mission will require a substantial increase in landed mass compared to previous robotic missions, beyond the capabilities of current Entry Descent and Landing, EDL, technologies, such as blunt-body aeroshells and supersonic disk-gap-band parachutes. The heaviest payload successfully landed on Mars to date is the Mars Science Laboratory which delivered the Curiosity rover with an approximate mass of 900 kg. READ MORE

  3. 23. A study on Friction Boundary Conditions with Unicorn/FEniCS-HPC

    University essay from KTH/Numerisk analys, NA

    Author : Irene Natale; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis is to present and validate a boundary condition formulation for CFD problems that includes a friction parameter. In the first part of the thesis the incompressible Navier-Stokes system of equations and the friction boundary conditions are presented. READ MORE

  4. 24. Loosely coupled, modular framework for linear static aeroelastic analyses

    University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner

    Author : Aaron Dettmann; [2019]
    Keywords : Aeroelasticity; Simulation; CFD; FEM; VLM; Euler-Bernoulli beam theory III; Aeroelasticitet; Simulation; CFD; FEM; VLM; Euler-Bernoulli-balkmodell;

    Abstract : A computational framework for linear static aeroelastic analyses is presented. The overall aeroelasticity model is applicable to conceptual aircraft design studies and other low-fidelity aero-structural analyses. A partitioned approach is used, i. e. READ MORE
