• Semester 5, position 4

Introducing students to the basics of computer applications in simulations and computations of aeronautical problems. Students are first introduced to theoretical foundations of computational methods and later through computer implementation on model problems from different areas of aeronautical engineering (aerodynamics, flight mechanics, aircraft structures...) gain working knowledge. The subject is organized so that several typical (model) problems are completely solved step-by-step from start to finish.

By mastering the curriculum a student gains specific skills: - thorough knowledge and understanding of numerical methods - ability to use and apply basic numerical methods for solving ODE, finite difference and finite elements methods - correlation between fundamentals in mathematics, programming, mechanics, fluid mechanics and construction analysis

• Determination of geometrical characteristics of sections • Parameters of compressible flow - Fundamental equations for one-dimensional compressible flow • Calculation of the flow around a cone (example of solving a problem modeled by ODE) • Simulation of plane take-off (also example of solving a problem modeled by ODE, application of interpolation methods to aerodynamic characteristics of aircrafts) • FEM calculation of lattice structures (example of solving sparse systems of equations with many unknowns)

• Determination of geometrical characteristics of sections - using a program for calculating the geometrical characteristics of sections • Parameters of compressible flow - an interactive program for parameters of compressible flow • Calculation of the flow around a cone (example of solving a problem modeled by ODE) - computational problem solving, obtained results and analysis • Simulation of plane take-off (also example of solving a problem modeled by ODE, application of interpolation methods to aerodynamic characteristics of aircrafts) - a program for calculating take-off distance and velocity • FEM calculation of lattice structures (example of solving sparse systems of equations with many unknowns) - a program for calculating stresses of two-dimensional lattices
