    How do I create a matrix from a simple for loop?

    Homework Statement I am trying to create a code, in Matlab, that will describe the geometry of a PARSEC airfoil. The x coordinates for the upper and lower surfaces of the airfoil shape simply run from 0 to 1 (for a unit chord length). The z-coordinates (that describe the shape) are given by...

    Convergence Error in Matlab Code for Fluid Flow Simulation

    Apologies, but I'm not sure how to go about doing that. I am a Matlab, and coding in general, novice. The error is in the plot that is generated - higher taper ratios have a better efficiency (closer to elliptical lift distribution) which I don't think should be the case. Many thanks for any...

    Convergence Error in Matlab Code for Fluid Flow Simulation

    Homework Statement My apologies if the error is an obvious one and many thanks in advance for any help given: I am trying to create a Matlab code that simulates Lifting Line Theory in order to provide an estimate of the lift and drag of a 3D wing. My hope is to later use this as part of...
