Preface

This book is devoted to a presentation and discussion of the fluid mechanical aspects of separated and vortical flows in aircraft wing aerodynamics. The main focus is on large aspect-ratio wings and on small aspect-ratio delta-type wings. In general, we do not deal with aerodynamic design issues of these wings. Our aim is to foster an understanding of the basic properties of the wing vortex systems and their behavior. We further want to demonstrate the capabilities of numerical simulation methods for such flows and the interpretation of the results from a fluid-mechanical point of view. The economical and ecological pressures on, in particular, transport aircraft are progressively increasing. Military aircraft, on the other hand, faces large challenges with regard to
