Simulating Atmospheric Turbulence
Abstract
Dimensionless time series for gusts and gradients calculated with model. Single-sided one-dimensional spectra obtained from Fourier analysis of simulated vertical gust. Each of four plots represents spectrum in one of four altitude bands ranging from 0 to 10 km. Model differs from most models; is nondimensional for greater generality and uses spectra with finite wave number limits. Developed to predict effects of atmospheric turbulence in horizontal and near-horizontal flight also applicable to commercial aviation.
