Aerodynamic forces acting on the surfaces of objects or
structures that have air flow around can be examined with CFD
analyses, and aerodynamic characterization of objects can be
made by calculating aerodynamic coefficients (drag, lift, etc.) and
moments.
Aerodynamic characterization, design and optimization, and
simulation of wind tunnel tests can be carried out in many fields
(land vehicles, wind turbines, high buildings, etc.), especially for
the aerospace industry.
