Experimental verification of an Oseen flow slender body theory
This paper has originated from an EPSRC proposal to experimentally verify a theory developed by the proposer on the fundamental behaviour of manoeuvring bodies, particularly slender or thin, in fluids. The theory has widespread applications, including missile dynamics, ship manoeuvring, wing aerodynamics, and wind turbines. Following the publication, collaboration has taken place with Vestas (providing letters of support) for wind turbines, and BAESYSTEMS and MBDA for missile dynamics. The paper was also disseminated in an invited speaker talk at the 2011 Multiphysics Conference, and the theory has been extensively quoted in Slow Viscous Flow by P.N. Shankar, Imperial College Press.
