Aerodynamics
The Aerodynamics Group at Orbital Research, Inc.
is active in a wide variety of research and engineering efforts
that are focused on the design and development of advanced Active
Flow Control systems for aircraft and missiles. ORI employs state-of-the-art
solutions utilizing exploratory wind tunnel experiments coupled
with high-fidelity Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations
to advance through the concept-to-development stages in a very
time and cost-efficient manner. Since its inception in 1992,
ORI has a proven excellent track record of successful research programs
funded by U.S. government agencies, including Defense Advanced
Research Project Agency (DARPA), Army, Air Force, and Special
Operations Command (SOCOM). ORI has also been collaborating with
large aerospace corporations for specific R&D programs. |
