0304-673 - Aeromechanics Laboratory

Institution:

Rochester Institute of Technology

Subject:

Description:

A companion laboratory course for 0304-671 and 0304-675 illustrating the behavior of advanced engineering structures and aerodynamic principles common to aircraft and spacecraft design. Students investigate the bending and torsion of thin-walled single cell and multi-cell members. Wind tunnel experiments investigate basic concepts of lift and drag on bluff bodies, wing sections and lifting bodies. Boundary layer characterization is simulated on digital computers and investigated experimentally. Structural analysis and design evaluation are also simulated where appropriate. (0304-560; corequisites: 0304-671, 575, registration preference is given to students enrolled in the aero option) Lab 2, Credit 1
