This course starts with a theoretical overview of the famous Navier-Stokes equations and how to simpllify them in order to get easier, yet insightful, potential equations for fast analysis.

Then we will focus in using these equations to derive the Vortex Panel Method (we'll cover all maths aspects also) and code it in Matlab. With that in hands, we will perform several analysis of generic airfoils to better understand how key design characteristics affect the overall results.

On the next section, we'll go from 2D world to 3D, analysing wings now. Similarly, we'll start with a theoretical review of the Weissinger method for general wings (we'll cover all maths aspects also) and then we'll create a Matlab code to simulate the designs. We'll invistigate how several key parameters, such as sweep, aspect ratio, twist and others, can affect the overall behavior of wings.

Finally, we'll include viscous effects on the Weissinger method for a more robust analysis, including flow separation and stall.

This course is filled with real examples and is a more hands-on approach on the analysis of airfoils and wings. If your are an engineering student, aviation enthusiast, industry or academic engineer or just want to learn more about how to apply Aerodynamic theory, this is the right course for you.
