ASME Aerospace Division Reception
A very important function of wind tunnel models and testing Sponsored by: Aerospace Division
is to verify a new aeroelastic theory or a new computational
method. For this purpose, experimental aeroelastic model 5:45PM–7:15PM
design and manufacturing of scaled models, model ground Deer Valley, 1st Floor,
vibration tests, and wind tunnel testing are essential to Salt Lake Marriott Downtown at City Creek Hotel
success. In the past 20 years, the Duke aeroelastic group has
designed many aeroelastic models and conducted wind tunnel The Italian Way To Advanced Manufacturing Panel
