The not-so-simple flight mechanics of Iron Man - A CFD study
The not-so-simple flight mechanics of Iron Man - A CFD study
This is not just colors; to conduct an airplane's flight mechanics and aerodynamic performance study, we use the same methodology that we will use in this study. Hereafter, we focus on the aerodynamics of Iron Man to determine if Hollywood movies are realistic or not.
