In this study, steady/unsteady aerodynamic characteristic for three dimensional symmetric wing was investigated numerically using Vortex Panel Method. This program utilized linearly varying vortices in x and y directions distributed on the wing surface and was applied to the incompressible potential. flow around a three dimensional wing Separation and deformation of the wake are not considered. The comparison between NACA Airfoil Data and the computed results showed excellent agreement. πus method was applied to unsteady wings undergoing both sudden pitch-up and constant rate pitching motion. In the unsteady flow analysis, a formation and a time-dependent locations of Starting Vortices are considered and the effect of Starting Vortices on aerodynamic characteristic of the wing was calculated. The present method can be extended to apply for more complicated cases such as pitching, flapping and rotating wing analysis.

An experimental study on aerodynamic coefficients of a lambda wing configuration was performed at the low speed wind tunnel of Agency for Defense Development. The main purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of sideslip angle on various aerodynamic coefficients. In the case of $0^{\circ}C$ sideslip angle, nose-up pitching moment rapidly increases at a specific angle of attack. This unstable pitching moment characteristic is referred to as pitch break or pitch up. As the sideslip angle increases, the pitch break is found to be generated at a higher angle of attack. Rolling moment is found to show similar behavior pattern to 'pitch break' style with angle of attack at non-zero sideslip angles. This trend gets severer at greater sideslip angles. Yawing moment also shows substantial variation of the slope and the unstable directional stability with sideslip angles at higher angles of attack. These characteristics of the three moments clearly implies the difficulty of the flight control which requires efficient control augmentation system.

In this study, steady and unsteady aerodynamic analyses of a huge rocket configuration have been conducted in a transonic flow region. The launch vehicle structural response are coupled with the transonic flow state transitions at the nose of the payload fairing. Before performing the coupled fluid-structure transonic aeroealstic simulations transonic aerodynamic characteristics are investigated for the pitching motions of the rocket at finite angle-of-attack. An unsteady CFD analysis method with a moving grid technique based on the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations with the k-w SST transition turbulence model is applied to accurately predict the transonic loads of the rocket at pitching motion. It is shown that the fluctuating amplitude of the lateral aerodynamic loads imposed on the rocket due to the pitching motion can be significantly increased in the transonic flow region.

To achieve the advanced forward flight performance of helicopter, the passive control methods for enhancement of the dynamic stall characteristics of rotor blades are studied. To enhance the dynamic stall characteristics of the rotor blades, it is essential to improve the lift performance and the pitching moment performance simultaneously with the control of the separation on the rotor blades. For this point of view, both the fixed droop leading edge and the Gurney flap which are simply realized are used for control of the dynamic stall in severe dynamic stall conditions. From this study, the combination of both passive control methods showed dramatic enhancement of lift and pitching moment performance in dynamic stall than previous research results.

Lambda wing type Unmanned Combat Aerial Vehicle(UCAV) which adopts Blended Wing Body(BWB) has relatively less drag and more stealth performance than conventional aircraft. However, Pitching moment is rapidly increased at a specific angle of attack affected by leading edge vortex due to leading edge sweep angle. Wind tunnel testing and numerical analysis were carried out with UCAV 1303 configuration on condition of 50 m/s of flow velocity, $-4^{\circ}{\sim}28^{\circ}$ of the range of angle-of-attack. The effect of wing twist for longitudinal stability at the various angles of attack was verified in this study. When negative twist is applied on the wing, Pitch-break was onset at higher angle of attack due to delayed flow separation on outboard of the wing. On the other hand, pitch-break was onset at lower angle of attack and lift-to-drag ratio was increased when positive twist is applied on the wing.

The purpose of this study is to develop a program that computes the position of the instantaneous center of rotation while an object moves in a circular motion. For this study, a mathematical algorithm was developed and implemented on the experimental data. Data for pitching (40m carry) and putting (4m) strokes were obtained from a skilled female golfer. A computer program (Centering 1.0) calculated the experimental data and found the radius of the instantaneous center of rotation. When the data were taken broadly, the program produced an error distance of radius. When the data were divided gradually, the program produced a very close instantaneous center of rotation. On comparing pitching and putting strokes, putting was found to have a greater radius than pitching. The instantaneous centers of rotation of putting were not in the golfer's body rather, they were 3m away from the club head. The Centering 1.0 program can calculate the instantaneous center of rotation with at least three sets of experimental data.

The propulsive characteristics of oscillating flat plates are investigated using a discrete vortex method. The plates and their wakes are represented by discrete point vortices. To analyze the closely coupled aerodynamic interference between the plates, a vortex core model and a vortex core addition scheme are combined. A calculated wake shape for a flat plate in heaving oscillation is compared with flow visualization. The effect of wake shapes on the propulsive characteristics of the plates in pitching oscillation is investigated. The propulsive characteristics of oscillating plates with three cases (1. one is stationary and another is oscillating, 2. both oscillating in phase, 3. both oscillating out of phase) are calculated. The plates oscillating out of phase showed the largest thrust force among the three cases.

A computational study on the supersonic flow around the lateral jet controlled missile has been performed. For this purpose a three dimensional Navier-Stokes computer code(AADL3D) has been developed and case studies have been performed by comparing the normal force coefficient and the moment coefficient of a missile body for different jet flow conditions including jet pressure and jet Mach number. The results show different behavior of normal force and moment variation according to jet pressure variation and jet Mach number variation. From the detailed flow field analyses, it is verified that most of the normal force loss and the pitching moment generation are taken place at the low-pressure region behind the jet nozzle. Furthermore, it is shown that the pitching moment can be efficiently reduced by obtaining the lateral thrust through higher jet Mach number rather than through high jet pressure.
