Contributor Teunissen, P. (mentor) Gorte, B. (mentor) Bucksch, A.

What is currently being used to perform CFD simulations are Computer Aided Design (CAD) models of the airplanes, which are usually low-detail industrial design models. Research of new methods for improving the results of the simulating process is of great importance. One method that can be tested in this direction is the creation of more detailed models of the actual airplanes via reverse engineering techniques. Laser scanning is one of these techniques. Here, a laser scanner is used to measure TU Delft’s Cessna Citation. Afterwards, parts of the airplane are modelled by using suitable methods to process the obtained laser points.
