www.researchgate.net: An Investigation of Wheel Aerodynamic Effects
for a Saloon Car


I remember the name Adrian Gaylard from discussions a few years back.

LinkedIn wants an email address. No thanks. U of Georgia and Coventry University were also notable. A lot of the materials disappeared, I had captured a few Powerpoint slides like this (added to my album in 2013(!)):



I did a search and surfaced a few other interesting articles at ReasearchGate:

www.researchgate.net/publication: Automotive Aerodynamics Special Issue Surface contamination of cars: a review

https://www.researchgate.net: The importance of unsteady aerodynamics to road vehicle dynamics

There are links to other articles at the bottom of some of those. Examples:
Quote:
Optimization of the aerodynamic drag reduction of a passenger hatchback car
July 2018 · Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers Part G Journal of Aerospace Engineering

Proposal of an Aerodynamic Concept for Automotive Drag Reduction
November 2014

Drag Reduction Devices
Adrian Gaylard Martin Passmore Max Varney[...]Y.A. Irving Brown
I [think I] remember this one:
www.researchgate.net: The Effect of Base Bleed and Rear Cavities on the Drag of an SUV

I wonder whether they really went away and are back, or what?
