A vehicle on the road encounters an unsteady flow due to turbulence in the natural wind, unsteady wakes of other vehicles and as a result of traversing through the stationary wakes of roadside obstacles. Unsteady effects occurring in the sideglass re... Read More about Evaluation of the Aerodynamic and Aeroacoustic Response of a Vehicle to Transient Flow Conditions.

Unsteady Surface Pressures and Airload of a Pitching Airfoil (2013)
Journal Article
