We combine the Adomian decomposition method (ADM) and Adomian’s asymptotic decomposition method (AADM) for solving Riccati equations. We investigate the approximate global solution by matching the near-field approximation derived from the Adomian decomposition method with the far-field approximation derived from Adomian’s asymptotic decomposition method for Riccati equations and in such cases when we do not find any region of overlap between the obtained approximate solutions by the two proposed methods, we connect the two approximations by the Padé approximant of the near-field approximation. We illustrate the efficiency of the technique for several specific examples of the Riccati equation for which the exact solution is known in advance.

The intent of this paper is to investigate the effectiveness of direct numerical computation in capturing acoustic fields. It has been the trend to use high-order schemes whenever there is interest in resolving the acoustic field, even though there has never been a complete study of the accuracy of low-order schemes. We revisit a long-standing benchmark problem in aeroacoustics to show the validity of such low-order schemes. The problem we consider is that of a flat-plate airfoil in a non-uniform flow. We show that when the linearized Euler equations are used to model problems in aeroacoustics, a simple second-order numerical scheme is powerful enough to provide accurate aeroacoustic results. We validate this computational approach by comparing both the RMS and instantaneous pressure on the airfoil and in the far field to semianalytic and asymptotic results.

In the aerodynamic shape design, the drag prediction has always been an extremely challenging mission for the exploration of a configuration. As for the more complex configurations, it is especially desired to the availability of a highly accurate and reliable aerodynamic numerical solution. For improving the drag prediction accuracy and promoting the aerodynamic shape designs, firstly, the characteristics of drag prediction based on far-field drag method and near-field drag method is analyzed and compared. Also, the merits and demerits of defining axial velocity defect with the current main far-field drag prediction approaches is summarized, which promotes the building of the improved method of axial velocity defect and the improved far-field drag prediction and decomposition approach. Moreover, during the establishment of the drag decomposition method, it is necessary to judge and decide on the selection of the drag region. Therefore, the discussions on the sensitivity of the relevant parameters are fulfilled. Furthermore, based on the far-field drag prediction and decomposition method constructed, the aerodynamic performance research of Common Research Model wing-body configuration is launched. The results show that it can effectively observe and analyze the changes in drag components, their impact on the total drag and the contribution percentage. Finally, combining the far-field drag prediction and decomposition method proposed in this paper with a gradient-based aerodynamic shape optimization design system, the aerodynamic shape optimization designs are studied with CRM wing-body configuration. The results can not only directly analyze the detailed change of the visualized drag region, but also can obtain the more accurate total drag and lift-to-drag ratio of the optimized configuration by removing the spurious drag.
