Nonlinear static aeroelastic behavior of a basic composite missile fin is analyzed by means of two-way coupled FSI simulation and the effects of composite damages are presented. The configuration has been simulated by coupling the two commercial solvers ANSYS CFX for the fluid mechanical simulation with ANSYS Mechanical for the structural simulation. 3D composite fin geometry is constructed using ANSYS ACP tool. Interlaminar damage cases were investigated and the influence of the damage locations on the static aeroelastic behavior is discussed. It is shown that for the cases investigated, leading and trailing edge delamination in the compressive zone of the composite laminate of the fin are more critical in terms of their effect on the static aeroelastic response of the composite missile fin under the flow conditions analyzed.

Nonlinear Static Aeroelastic Behavior of Composite Missile Fin with Interlaminar and Intralaminar Damage
ÖZKAYA, ÖZGE; Kayran, Altan (2018-01-12)
Nonlinear static aeroelastic behavior of the damaged composite missile fins is investigated. For this purpose, two-way coupled fluid structure interaction (FSI) analyses are performed to study the effect of different failure modes on the static aeroelastic behaviour of composite missile fins.The FSI analysis is done with two separate solvers, ANSYS CFX for the fluid (CFD) and ANSYS Mechanical for the structure (FEM) which runs in sequential order and exchange information at the interface of the fluid and st...

Numerical investigations of lateral jets for missile aerodynamics
Ağsarlıoğlu, Ekin; Albayrak, Kahraman; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2011)
In this thesis, effects of sonic lateral jets on aerodynamics of missiles and missilelike geometries are investigated numerically by commercial Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software FLUENT. The study consists of two parts. In the first part, two generic missile-like geometries with lateral jets, of which experimental data are available in literature, are analyzed by the software for validation studies. As the result of this study, experimental data and CFD results are in good agreement with each other...
