The proposed approach maps the physical and geometric parameters of the beams directly to the accuracy of a selected structural theory, enabling the selection of the minimum set of generalized displacement variables required to achieve the desired accuracy for a given set of input parameters. The training dataset is generated using the Carrera Unified Formulation and comprises combinations of generalized variables stemming from polynomial expansions up to the fourth order. Unlike previous studies, the input space explicitly includes physical cross-sectional parameters, as well as the presence and positions of stringers and ribs. The full dataset, encompassing all combinations of the considered structural theories and cases, comprises millions of analyses; however, accurate predictions are achieved using Deep Neural Networks with only approximately 1% of the full dataset for training. The results show that the proposed surrogate model reliably predicts the accuracy of a structural theory with good generalization capabilities. Concerning the most influential generalized variables, high accuracy in natural frequency prediction is generally achieved when approximately 60% of the fourth-order expansion terms are retained; all second-order terms are essential, while selected third- and fourth-order terms significantly influence the response.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100054,"journal":{"name":"Aerotecnica Missili & Spazio","volume":"105 6","pages":"987 - 1010"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s42496-026-00324-5.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149098084","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The osculating cone waverider methodology provides significant flexibility in generating waverider shapes, but conventionally flat and anhedral waveriders have been studied, and there is a limited number of studies on dihedral waveriders. Further, a new design limit criterion is used to evaluate the non-dimensional tip height, which is higher than conventional designs. Three distinct osculating cone waveriders are generated with non-dimensional tip heights, characterized by anhedral (0.3), dihedral (1.7), and flat (1) configurations. Examination of the geometric characteristics indicates that the dihedral configuration demonstrates the highest volumetric efficiency, surpassing its anhedral counterpart by 15<span>(%)</span>. Simulations are performed under both on-design and off-design conditions. Specifically, under on-design conditions, the anhedral waverider exhibits superior aerodynamic performance compared to the other two configurations, boasting an L/D ratio that is 18<span>(%)</span> higher than its dihedral counterpart. In off-design situations, both the dihedral and flat waveriders demonstrated stability in lateral and directional directions. The dihedral waverider exhibited higher rolling moment and yawing moment derivatives, indicating its superior lateral and directional stability compared to the flat waverider. However, the anhedral waverider, although directionally stable, showed lateral instability characterized by positive yawing and rolling moment derivatives. Additionally, all three waveriders were observed to be longitudinally unstable, displaying comparable pitching moment derivatives. The study also shows that a local surface inclination-based theory is able to explain aspects of the pressure distribution which affect the forces and moments over the body.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100054,"journal":{"name":"Aerotecnica Missili & Spazio","volume":"105 6","pages":"937 - 957"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-06-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149098864","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The tool enables the modeling of complex breakup scenarios and the derivation of statistically representative debris populations for subsequent dynamical analyses. The resulting synthetic datasets provide an initial foundation for understanding the spatial distribution and evolution of debris clouds in the lunar environment.

In this study, a segmented spanwise wall oscillation (SSW) strategy is proposed, in which the wall is divided into several streamwise segments and adjacent segments oscillate in opposite spanwise directions. This configuration not only enhances the drag reduction performance of conventional spanwise oscillation but also enables self-balancing of driving forces through the counter-directional motion of neighboring segments. Direct numerical simulations (DNS) of turbulent channel flow at <i>Re</i><sub>τ</sub> = 200 are performed to systematically investigate the drag reduction characteristics of the segmented configuration. The wall is divided into four, eight, and sixteen streamwise segments, and simulations are conducted at an oscillation amplitude of A + = 12 over a range of oscillation periods <i>T</i><sup>+</sup> = 50–200. The results show that the segmented oscillation configuration can achieve higher drag reduction rates than the conventional oscillating wall. The optimal drag reduction increases with the number of segments, indicating that the segmentation pattern significantly influences the control performance. Flow structure analysis suggests that the reverse oscillation of adjacent segments generates localized disturbances at the interfaces, which modifies the spatial distribution of streamwise vortices and induces a characteristic bending of near-wall streaks. These structural modifications are associated with a redistribution of vorticity and a reduction in turbulent kinetic energy production, while the increase in dissipation remains relatively limited. Overall, the segmented oscillation strategy provides an effective approach for modulating near-wall turbulence structures and improving drag reduction performance, while offering potential advantages for practical implementation due to its force self-balancing characteristics.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100054,"journal":{"name":"Aerotecnica Missili & Spazio","volume":"105 6","pages":"863 - 881"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149099047","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study focuses on aerial path planning for autonomous air mobility in obstacle dense low altitude urban air space, integrating energy-efficient strategies with optimal path planning techniques.

In aeronautics, this mismatch must be small because FEMs are a fundamental part of the development of an aircraft and of increasing importance with the trend to more flexible wings in modern designs. Iterative finite element model updating can be computationally expensive for complex structures, and surrogate models can be employed to reduce the computational burden. A novel approach for FEM updating, namely assembly-like, is proposed and validated using real experimental data from a flexible wing. The assembly-like model updating framework implies that the model is updated as parts are assembled.

Aapproximately 95% of the required solves are performed on lower-fidelity subassembly models with smaller equation counts and memory requirements.
