Events and Conferences
Call for Papers (SciTech 2024)
​
The AIAA Applied Aerodynamics Rotorcraft Simulation Discussion Group will continue to host multiple special sessions at SciTech 2024 for enthusiasts of hovering aircraft computations. Organizers seek high quality papers covering a wide range of topics, including:
1. Comparative results to the newly acquired data of the NASA/U.S. Army Hover Validation and Acoustic Baseline (HVAB) rotor test;
2. Calculations of the download prediction Focus Challenge Problem;
3. General calculations for eVTOL or UAV rotorcraft in hover.
4. Fundamentals in hover simulations.
Conditions and geometry of the HVAB and focus challenge problems, and suggestions for eVTOL/UAV calculations are available on the AIAA Rotorcraft Simulation Discussion Group website: https://www.aiaa-hpw.org. Guidelines, expected results, and abstracts of previous investigation are also available at the website.
Call for papers for SciTech 2024 is available at https://www.aiaa.org/SciTech/call-for-content. Participants will need to upload abstracts by May 25, 2023. Abstracts should clearly detail the focus areas of your hover investigations. When submitting through AIAA’s conference website for SciTech-2024, please choose: Topic -> "Applied Aerodynamics", Sub-Topic ->"Special Session: Rotor-in- Hover Simulation Sessions". This will ensure that your submission is tagged correctly.
