A New Method to Generate Swirl Distortion for Jet Engine Research
Hoopes and O’Brien (AIAA 2013-3665) |
|
This paper presents the details related to the new swirl distortion generation method that I developed for my graduate degree at Virginia Tech. The paper provides a brief introduction, overview of the method, and some experimental results. More detail is available in my thesis, which is completed, but still being held for copyright reasons until May 2014.

Improved Prediction Method for the Design of High-Resolution Total Pressure Distortion Screens
Schneck, Ferrar, Bailey, Hoopes, and O’Brien (AIAA 2013-1133) |
|
This paper describes in detail the predictive method used to make total pressure distortion screens. My role in this paper was to do the research
and write the section of the paper about how we account for downstream mixing of a certain total pressure profile.

Application of Additive Manufacturing to Rapidly Produce High-Resolution Total Pressure Distortion Screens
Ferrar, Schneck, Bailey, Hoopes, and O’Brien (AIAA 2012-0929) |
|
This paper describes a method for quickly making accurate total pressure distortion screens for use in jet engine research.
This paper describes the method abstractly, and is the first in a series of papers that the describe the method in more detail.

Extraction of Shock Waves and Separation and Attachment Lines from Computational Fluid Dynamics
Simulations Using Subjective Logic
Lively, Gorrell, Hoopes, Woodley, and Gosnell (AIAA 2012-1263) |
|
This paper describes a method for detecting shock waves and separation and attachment lines form large CFD datasets.
For this research I developed our implementation of the algorithms. Going from an abstract description of the detection
process to a tested C++ program. I also worked on hooking these programs to CFD simulations while they were running so one
could examine the results, in terms of the extracted flow features, while the simulation was running.
