1. COMPUTATIONAL ANALYSIS OF LOAD VENTILATION IN BROILER TRANSPORT
ABSTRACT The characterization of ventilation during the transport of broiler chickens is essential for identifying and characterizing the potential problems of a convective heat flow and its effects on the welfare and the health and production conditions of the chickens. The objective of this study was to evaluate the ventilation patterns in two layout model

2. Investigation of a NACA0012 Finite Wing Aerodynamics at Low Reynold’s Numbers and 0º to 90º Angle of Attack
ABSTRACT: The aerodynamic characteristics of a NACA0012 wing geometry at low Reynold’s numbers and angle of attack ranging from 0º to 90º are investigated using numerical simulations and the results are validated by wind tunnel experiments. Further experiments are conducted at low Reynold’s numbers of 1 × 105, 2 × 105 and 3 × 105. Findings of the st

6. A Review on Aerodynamics of Non-Flapping Bird Wings
ABSTRACT Birds are known for their agility, manoeuvrability, and flexibility during flight. These features allow their ability to fly under a large range of flight conditions. Bio flyers and bio aerodynamic/fluid surfaces have inspired many to perform experiments and simulations as well as to relate their results to engineering applications. Wings specifical

9. Propeller-induced Effects on the Aerodynamics of a Small Unmanned Aerial Vehicle
Abstract: The present paper has discussed investigations about the propeller slipstream effects on the aerodynamics of a generic unmanned air vehicle platform in the wind tunnel for a broad advance ratio range. The propeller-induced effects for small unmanned air vehicles are more significantly pronounced than general aviation aircraft, because of their high

10. Multidisciplinary Design Optimization of Sounding Rocket Fins Shape Using a Tool Called MDO-SONDA
Abstract: Multidisciplinary design optimization is a promising field in aerospace engineering. However, advances in this field have not been applied yet to improve Brazilian sounding rockets, such as the VS-40. Therefore, to give a perspective of the multidisciplinary design optimization in this context, this work presented a case study of this rocket, which

11. Reanálise CFSR-NCEP aplicada ao modelo SiB2 na simulação de fluxos de CO2 sobre o cultivo de soja em Cruz Alta.
The present work aimed to evaluate the behavior of CO2 fluxes, run by the Simple Biosphere Model (SiB2), by adopting CFSR-NCEP data reanalyzed as an atmospheric boundary condition. A statistical analysis was used in order to validate the results obtained using a coefficient for the adjusted model based on the simulation parameters when compared to the data o
