VORTEX LATTICE
This code solves steady aerodynamics using the vortex lattice method. The geometry of the wing can be generated according to is Sweep, Taper ratio, dihedral, Aspect Ratio and chord. In the Main.m just change the parameters and you're up to go. Also, it can be specified the flight conditions like the angle of attack, or more than one, the flying Mach and altitude.
Finally, the panelization can be specified for more accuracy.
This is the first version I've created for college, and as I improve it, I'll try to keep the version updated.
*** What to expect in future updates
- General code improvements.
- Addition of control surfaces to the wing.
- Possibility of studying more surfaces, like a tail, winglets,...
- Being able to solve steady and unsteady cases.
- Creation of a full App program.
- Introduction to aeroelasticity.
- Possibility of running a Doublet Lattice Method to simplify unsteady problems.
