Autowing is unique in its capabilities of being able to model the complex aero-hydrodynamics of high speed craft using the method of Discrete Vortices. Autowing calculates the aero and hydrodynamics of various different types of high-speed craft including; wing in ground effect craft (Ekranoplans), hydrofoils, planing pulls, stepped planing hulls, semi-planing vessels and hydrofoil-assisted catamarans

CAA++ provides a suite of tools for the simulation of flow-driven acoustics which requires detailed resolution of the small, noise-generating turbulent eddies and the full spectrum of transmitted acoustic waves.

Cart3D is an inviscid analysis package for conceptual and preliminary aerodynamic design. The package features fully-integrated adjoint-driven mesh adaptation and also includes utilities for geometry import, surface modeling and intersection, mesh generation, and post-processing of results.

Meshes automatically refine as simulations evolve to reduce error in aerodynamic outputs. Flow solvers run in parallel and to take full advantage of multi-core and multi-cpu hardware.

Chinook is numerical analysis software for the prediction of explosive blast effects on buildings, vehicles, ships etc. Models available for a range of materials including gases, liquids, solids, particles, droplets and explosives and mixtures of materials.

The EllipSys3D code is a multiblock finite volume discretization of the incompressible Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations in general curvilinear coordinates. It is developed in co-operation between the Department of Mechanical Engineering at DTU and The Department of Wind Energy at Risø National Laboratory. The solver has been developed for wind turbines.

Free Internet Rowing Model (FIRM) is a research code. FIRM evolved from an initial attempt at a reasonably comprehensive rowing model named “Michlet Rowing”.

In its present form the model tries to fill a need for a useful tool that lies somewhere between a full 3D model with CFD calculations of the complex flow fields, and simpler models that treat the rowers’ bodies as point masses and that use empirical approximations for the drag on the boat and rowers.

HiFiLES (High Fidelity Large Eddy Simulation) is a high-order LES solver developed in the Aerospace Computing Laboratory (ACL) at Stanford University. It is written in C++. The code uses the MPI protocol to run on multiple processors and CUDA to harness GPU performance.

High-order numerical schemes have the potential to advance CFD beyond the current plateau of second-order methods and RANS turbulence modeling, ushering in new levels of accuracy and computational efficiency in turbulent flow simulations.

PARIS Simulator (PArallel Robust Interface Simulator) combines the Volume-Of-Fluid (VOF) and Front-Tracking methods to create simulations of interfacial fluid flow, such as droplets, bubbles or waves. It computes complex flows such as fast atomizing jets and has a Lagrangian point particle option.

Reef3D is a CFD program with special focus on solving problems in the field of marine, coastal and ocean engineering. The code is fully parallelized using the MPI library and tested up to 1024 processors.

TYCHO (TYrolian Computational HydrOdynamics) is a multidimensional compressible hydrodynamics code written in C and parallelized with Open-MP. A Lagrangian remap version of the Piece-wise Parabolic Method is applied. The code is based on the freely available VH-1 Package.
