New data set improves modeling of supersonic flows around a cantilever

New data set improves modeling of supersonic flows around a cantilever Extreme pressures come with high-speed flight. The resulting aerodynamic forces can bring significant risk to deforming the components of the vehicle in motion—even to the point of aeroelastic deformation—when solids behave more like liquids. This can jeopardize stability or controllability of the entire vehicle.
