Pickup trucks are some of the least aerodynamically efficient vehicles on the road, partly due to their large frontal area, upright design that fights the wind as you drive along but also the open bed ...

Leveraging several of Altair's state-of-the-art technologies from advanced meshing to high-fidelity computational fluid dynamics simulation, and designed with an intuitive, highly automated and ...

At the 2013 Americas Altair Technology Conference last week in Garden Grove, Calif., Altair introduced an application designed to improve wind tunnel simulation for evaluating a vehicle's external ...

The Tesla Cybertruck with its interesting design offered a surprise in the first independent aerodynamic performance simulation test. It comes in at an unofficial 0.39 drag coefficient. When Tesla ...

Research in fluid mechanics and aerodynamics includes fluid-structure interactions, unsteady fluid flows, phase-based analysis of fluid flows, rarefied gas flow, particle flow simulation, aerodynamic ...

The present paper provides an up-to-date survey of the use of large eddy simulation (LES) and sequels for engineering applications related to aerodynamics. Most recent landmark achievements are ...
