Synopsis
The overall objective of this work is to provide direct research, design, development, and software test support to the CREATE-AV program in the areas of aircraft aerodynamics, propulsion, structural dynamics, kinematics and kinetics, high enthalpy real gas effects, multi-species effects, pre/post-processing, and case management. This includes the research and development of new code capabilities, maintenance and performance improvements to existing product software, technical user support, and documentation. This work is targeted at the Kestrel product and associated Firebolt module but will undoubtedly involve the other products of the CREATE-AV program due to the interconnections and code re-use between the products.
