Abstract: The design of unconventional systems requires early use of highfidelity physicsbased tools to search the design space for improved and potentially optimum designs. Current methods for incorporating these computationally ...

Abstract: The integrated design of a variable cycle engine (VCE) and an aircraft thermal management system (TMS) is investigated. The integrated system is designed using the multiple design point approach in order to achieve required ...

Abstract: Recent increases in fuel prices and increased focus on aviation's environmental impacts have reignited focus on the open rotor engine concept. This type of architecture was extensively investigated in previous decades but ...

Abstract: Increased computing power has enabled designers to efficiently perform robust design analyses of engine systems. Traditional, filtered Monte Carlo methods involve creating surrogate model representations of a physics-based ...

Abstract: Several studies on wind energy have been conducted to find possible solutions to power issues related to the variable nature of the wind. One of the most promising seems to be the application of sinusoidal modifications ...

Abstract: The maintenance and improvement of safety are among the most critical concerns in civil aviation operations. Due to the increased availability of data and improvements in computing power, applying artificial intelligence ...

Abstract: The design of an aircraft thermal management system (TMS) that is capable of rejecting heat loads into the bypass stream of a typical low-bypass ratio turbofan engine, or a ram-air stream, is investigated. The TMS consists ...
