    Abstract : Accurately modeling aerodynamic forces and moments are crucial for understanding thebehavior of an aircraft when performing various maneuvers at different flight conditions.However, this task is challenging due to complex nonlinear dependencies on manydifferent parameters. READ MORE

  3. 2. Aerodynamic Analysis of a Blended Wing Body UAV

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

    Author : Oliver Harrisson; [2022]
    Keywords : Computational Fluid Dynamics CFD ; Blended Wing Body BWB ; ANSYS Fluent; Aeronautics; Unmanned Aerial Vehicle UAV ;

    Abstract : The focus of this thesis is to analyse the flight characteristics of the blended wingbody (BWB) unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) Green Raven currently being developed by students at the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) in Stockholm,Sweden. The purpose of evaluating a BWB aircraft is due to its potential increasein fuel efficiency and payload compared to conventional aircrafts which would enable more sustainable flights. READ MORE

  6. 5. What happens in the shadows? : A quantitative analysis on the effect of shadows in baseball.

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för idrottsvetenskap (ID)

    Author : Martin Ström; [2021]
    Keywords : Statistics; outcome; plate appearance; pitcher; batter;

    Abstract : Baseball is one of the most statistically documented sports in the world. Every statistical outcome in baseball starts with the pitcher and the plate appearance. In baseball, it is believed that when shadows are present between the pitcher’s mound and the batter’s box, the pitcher is at an advantage. READ MORE
