Description

This class sets up a Doublet-Lattice-Model for a given Wing Several Methods are provided for calculating the Aerodyanmic Influence Coefficients

All Calculations are performed in MATALB.

For more detailed Information on methods see Documentation see "supplemental Software"

Examples

  • Examples can be found in the "Example_Folder"

Limitations

  • Non-Planar configuations do not work
  • Optimised for available definition of the wing

To-Do's:

  • more detailed description of the wing in form of sections and regions
  • non-planar configurations
  • surface-body interactions

IMPORTANT NOTE

  • This tool is currently in developement and therefore purely experimentaly!
  • It is tested and validated against various models calculated with NX NASTRAN, however errors cannot be excluded
