Presentation / Conference
Ouyang, B., Yao, Y., & Bouferrouk, A. (2016, July). DES prediction of a novel high-lift device step 1: Steady blowing. Poster presented at 2016 Applied Aerodynamics, Bristol, UK

This presentation focus on my recent results from year one. I.E. Identify the best CFD method to use with high-lift devices and apply flow control to improve performance.

Development and testing of a variable camber morphing wing mechanism (2016)
Presentation / Conference
Evans, C., Harmer, M., Marks, O., Tiley, S., Willis, T., Bouferrouk, A., & Yao, Y. (2016, May). Development and testing of a variable camber morphing wing mechanism. Paper presented at International Symposium of Sustainable Aviation, Istanbul, Turkey

The aim of this study was to develop, build and test a morphing wing design in a low-speed wind tunnel to demonstrate its viability as a practical morphing mechanism. The original concept this study is based upon is so-called the Direct Control Airfo... Read More about Development and testing of a variable camber morphing wing mechanism.

DES prediction of near stall performance of a high lift airfoil (2016)
Presentation / Conference
Ouyang, B., Yao, Y., & Bouferrouk, A. (2016, May). DES prediction of near stall performance of a high lift airfoil. Paper presented at International Symposium of Sustainable Aviation, Istanbul, Turkey

CFD analyses using Detached Eddy Simulation (DES) and Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) techniques are conducted on a two-element NLR 7301 airfoil configuration at take-off flow conditions to predict its near stall aerodynamic performance. Meshi... Read More about DES prediction of near stall performance of a high lift airfoil.

Quantifying turbulence from field measurements at a mixed low tidal energy site (2016)
Journal Article

© 2015 Elsevier Ltd. This study explores typical characteristics of the mean and turbulent profiles at a mixed low tidal energy site (40 m mean water depth) where the waves have limited effects on the currents. The turbulence profiles were derived fr... Read More about Quantifying turbulence from field measurements at a mixed low tidal energy site.

Field measurements of surface waves using a 5-beam ADCP (2016)
Journal Article

© 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved. This study examines the performance of an improved 5-beam ADCP, with a vertical beam, when deployed to measure non-directional waves in waters of 40 m depth. To assess the performance, the ADCP is compared wi... Read More about Field measurements of surface waves using a 5-beam ADCP.
