Personal profile

Mikhail Goman joined De Montofrt University in 1997 being invited and funded by the Defence Evaluation and Research Agency (known as DERA), UK and QinetiQ, Ltd. He is Professor of Dynamics since 2000 at the Faculty of Technology. His research and scientific career started in 1972 at the Central Aerohydrodynamic Institute (TsAGI, ), named after Prof N.E.Zhukovsky, in Russia. He had an extensive experience in aerodynamic modelling and nonlinear flight dynamics with special focus on critical flight regimes in extended flight envelope. For this cycle of works and practical applications he was awarded in 1992 the Zhukovsky Gold medal, the highest aeronautical accolade in Russia, for the best work in Theory of Aviation.

Mikhail Goman is a Co-Director of the newly established Centre for Engineering Science and Advanced Systems (CESAS) at the Faculty of Technology and Head of Nonlinear Flight Dynamics Research Group, which is involved in research collaboration with a number of world famous research Institutions such as TsAGI, Russia and the National Aerospace Laboratories (CSIR-NAL), India. Recently, he was leading the development of the aerodynamic model of a generic airliner in extended flight envelope as a part of the European Union 7th Framework Programme research project SUPRA (2009-2012), Simulation of UPset Recovery in Aviation (). This project was aimed at creating new simulation technologies (aerodynamic modelling, motion cueing and simulator driving algorithms) in support of pilot training on available flight simulators in extended flight envelope, where stalled flight conditions may lead to the Loss-of-Control in Flight (LOC-I), the major cause of flight catastrophes in modern transport aviation. The developed SUPRA extended aerodynamic model was highly ranked by the invited technical experts from the NASA Langley Research Centre and the Boeing Company.

  • dc.title: Reducing flight upset risk and startle response: A study of the wake vortex alert with licensed commercial pilots dc.contributor.author: Borghini, Gianluca; Ronca, Vincenzo; Giorgi, Andrea; Aric貌, Pietro; Di Flumeri, Gianluca; Capotorto, Rossella; Rooseleer, Fr茅d茅ric; Kirwan, Barry; De Visscher, Ivan; Goman, M. (Mikhail G.); Pugh, Jonathan; Abramov, Nikolay; Granger, G茅raud; Alarcon, Diana Paola Moreno; Humm, Elizabeth; Pozzi, Simone; Babiloni, Fabio dc.description.abstract: The study aimed at investigating the impact of an innovative Wake Vortex Alert (WVA) avionics on pilots' operation and mental states, intending to improve aviation safety by mitigating the risks associated with wake vortex encounters (WVEs). Wake vortices, generated by jet aircraft, pose a significant hazard to trailing or crossing aircrafts. Despite existing separation rules, incidents involving WVEs continue to occur, especially affecting smaller aircrafts like business jets, resulting in aircraft upsets and occasional cabin injuries. To address these challenges, the study focused on developing and validating an alert system that can be presented to air traffic controllers, enabling them to warn flight crews. This empowers the flight crews to either avoid the wake vortex or secure the cabin to prevent injuries. The research employed a multidimensional approach including an analysis of human performance and human factors (HF) issues to determine the potential impact of the alert on pilots' roles, tasks, and mental states. It also utilizes Human Assurance Levels (HALs) to evaluate the necessary human factors support based on the safety criticality of the new system. Realistic flight simulations were conducted to collect data of pilots' behavioural, subjective and neurophysiological responses during WVEs. The data allowed for an objective evaluation of the WVA impact on pilots' operation, behaviour and mental states (mental workload, stress levels and arousal). In particular, the results highlighted the effectiveness of the alert system in facilitating pilots' preparation, awareness and crew resource management (CRM). The results also highlighted the importance of avionics able to enhance aviation safety and reducing risks associated with wake vortex encounters. In particular, we demonstrated how providing timely information and improving situational awareness, the WVA will minimize the occurrence of WVEs and contribute to safer aviation operations. dc.description: open access article

  • dc.title: Prediction of aerodynamic characteristics of high-lift Common Research Model in ground effect dc.contributor.author: Sereez, Mohamed; Abramov, Nikolay; Goman, M. (Mikhail G.) dc.description.abstract: Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) simulations are performed to investigate the aerodynamic characteristics of the NASA Common Research Model (CRM) in its high-lift (HL) configuration in close proximity to the ground. The RANS simulations are conducted at a moderate Reynolds number of Re=5.49脳106 and M=0.2 with the use of the Spalart-Allmaras (SA) turbulence model. out of ground effect (OGE) simulation results are validated against available wind tunnel data before proceeding to in ground effect (IGE) simulations. The obtained computational results in the immediate vicinity of the ground with asymmetric aircraft attitudes demonstrate significant changes in the longitudinal and lateral-directional aerodynamic characteristics, which should be taken into account in flight dynamics analysis of aircraft during take-off and landing in crosswind conditions. dc.description: open access article

  • dc.title: Wing Rock Prediction in Free-to-Roll Motion Using CFD Simulations dc.contributor.author: Sereez, Mohamed; Lambert, Caroline; Abramov, Nikolay; Goman, M. (Mikhail G.) dc.description.abstract: The free-to-roll wing rock CFD simulation of a slender 80-degree delta wing is performed using the Dynamic Fluid-Body Interaction (DFBI) framework and the overlap/chimera mesh method. The purpose of the simulations carried out was to test the capabilities of the current CFD methods for predicting wing rock motion over a wide range of angles of attack, including strong conical vortex interactions and vortex breakdown phenomenon. The predictions of steady aerodynamic dependencies and the aerodynamic stability derivatives based on forced oscillation tests along with the time histories of the wing rock motion of an 80-degree delta wing are in good qualitative and quantitative agreement with the available wind tunnel experimental data demonstrating onset of the wing rock motion. At higher angles of attack with vortex breakdown CFD simulations demonstrated an excitation of the large amplitude regular oscillations or the low amplitude chaotic oscillations depending on the applied initial conditions.

  • dc.title: A modified dual time integration technique for aerodynamic quasi-static and dynamic stall hysteresis dc.contributor.author: Sereez, Mohamed; Abramov, Nikolay; Goman, M. (Mikhail G.) dc.description.abstract: Simulation of the aerodynamic stall phenomenon in both quasi-static and dynamic conditions requires expensive computational resources. The computations become even more costly for static stall hysteresis using an unsteady solver with very slow variation of angle of attack at low reduced frequencies. In an explicit time-marching solver that satisfies the low Courant number condition, that is, CFL<1, the computational cost for such simulations becomes prohibitive, especially at higher Reynolds numbers due to the presence of thin-stretched cells with large aspect ratio in the boundary layer. In this paper, a segregated solver method such as the Semi-Implicit Method for Pressure-Linked Equations (SIMPLE) is modified as a dual pseudo-time marching method so that the unsteady problem at each time step is reformulated as a steady state problem. The resulting system of equations in the discretized finite volume formulation is then reduced to zero or near-zero residuals using available convergence acceleration methods such as local time stepping, multi-grid acceleration and residual smoothing. The performance and accuracy of the implemented algorithm was tested for three different airfoils at low to moderate Reynolds numbers in both incompressible and compressible flow conditions covering both attached and separated flow regimes. The results obtained are in close agreement with the published experimental and computational results for both quasi-static and dynamic stall and have demonstrated significant savings in computational time. dc.description: open access article

  • dc.title: Investigation of Aerodynamic Characteristics of a Generic Transport Aircraft in Ground Effect Using URANS Simulations dc.contributor.author: Sereez, Mohamed; Abramov, Nikolay; Goman, M. (Mikhail G.) dc.description.abstract: This paper focuses on computational prediction of aerodynamic and the flow field characteristics for NASA Common Research Model (CRM) in it鈥檚 High-Lift (HL) configuration in close proximity to the ground. The URANS simulation with the Spalart-Allmaras (SA) turbulence model is checked for the quality of the generated mesh and compared with the available wind tunnel data. The obtained simulation results in the immediate vicinity of the ground demonstrate significant changes in the longitudinal and lateral-directional aerodynamic characteristics in aircraft banked positions, which is important for a better understanding of aircraft landing in crosswind conditions. dc.description: This papers contributes to the methodology of the Impact Case Study submitted by 蜜桃直播 to the REF2021 "Enhancing Pilot Training and Flight Safety Through Improved Aerodynamic Modelling and Prediction of Nonlinear Flight Dynamics" (rated 3*).

  • dc.title: Evaluation of Aerodynamic Characteristics in Oscillatory Coning Using CFD Methods dc.contributor.author: Sereez, Mohamed; Goman, M. (Mikhail G.) dc.description.abstract: The wind tunnel rotary-balance testing is widely used in aircraft dynamics to characterise aerodynamics at moderate and high angles of attack during stall and spin regimes. In such experiments an aircraft test model is rotated along the wind-tunnel free-stream velocity vector allowing the measurement of aerodynamic characteristics in steady rotational flow conditions with constant angle of attack and sideslip. In modified tests named as oscillatory coning, the rotation vector is tilted from the free-stream velocity vector making flow conditions with periodic variations in angle of attack and sideslip. This allows evaluation of unsteady aerodynamic responses superimposed on steady conical rotation. The use of CFD methods for prediction of aerodynamic characteristics in rotary-balance and oscillatory coning conditions may significantly complement experimental data via extrapolation of data for higher Reynolds numbers, elimination of interference effects from supporting system, extraction of unsteady aerodynamic derivatives affecting aircraft dynamic stability. This paper presents CFD simulation results obtained in rotary-balance and oscillatory coning motions for the NASA Common Research Model (CRM) in its wing-body configuration at moderate 饾憛饾憭 = 1 脳 10^6 , low Mach number 饾憖=0.2 and the use of the obtained unsteady responses in aerodynamic modelling. dc.description: This paper contributes to the methodology of the REF2021 Impact Case Study "Enhancing Pilot Training and Flight Safety Through Improved Aerodynamic Modelling and Prediction of Nonlinear Flight Dynamics" submitted by 蜜桃直播 (rated 3*).

  • dc.title: Prediction Of Static Aerodynamic Hysteresis On A Thin Airfoil Using OpenFOAM dc.contributor.author: Sereez, Mohamed; Abramov, Nikolay; Goman, M. (Mikhail G.) dc.description.abstract: The paper presents computational prediction of aerodynamic hysteresis loops in static conditions for a two-dimensional aerofoil that was used as a cross-section profile for a rectangular wing with an aspect ratio of five, tested in the TsAGI T-106 wind tunnel at a Reynolds number of 饾憛饾憭=6脳106 and a Mach number of 饾憖=0.15. Tests in the wind tunnel showed that minor changes in the curvature of the leading edge of the thin aerodynamic profile lead to a significant increase in the maximum lift coefficient when significant hysteresis loops appear in the aerodynamic characteristics of the wing. The computational predictions of stall aerodynamics presented in this paper are made for a two-dimensional profile using the OpenFOAM open-source code to simulate a flow based on the unsteady Reynolds-averaged Navier鈥揝tokes equations using the Spalart鈥揂llmaras turbulence model. The calculation results confirm the existence of loops of static aerodynamic hysteresis and bistable structures of the separated flow, and the results are qualitatively similar to the results observed experimentally on the wing with a finite aspect ratio. dc.description: The file attached to this record is the author's final peer reviewed version.

  • dc.title: Aerodynamic Modeling for Post-Stall Flight Simulation of a Transport Airplane dc.contributor.author: Abramov, Nikolay; Goman, M. (Mikhail G.); Khrabrov, A. N. (Alexander N.); Soemarwoto, B. dc.description.abstract: The principles of aerodynamic modeling in the extended flight envelope, which is characterized by the development of separated flow, are outlined and illustrated for a generic transport airplane. The importance of different test techniques for generating wind tunnel data and the procedure for blending the obtained experimental data for aerodynamic modeling are discussed. Complementary use of computational fluid dynamics simulations reveals a substantial effect of the Reynolds number on the intensity of aerodynamic autorotation, which is later reflected in the aerodynamic model. Validation criteria for an extended envelope aerodynamic model are discussed, and the important role of professional test pilots with post-stall flying experience in tuning aerodynamic model parameters is emphasized. The paper presents an approach to aerodynamic modelling that was implemented in the project Simulation of Upset Recovery in Aviation (2009鈥�2012), funded by the European Union under the seventh framework programme. The developed post-stall aerodynamic model of a generic airliner configuration for a wide range of angles of attack, sideslip, and angular rate was successfully validated by a number of professional test pilots on hexapod and centrifuge-based flight simulator platforms. dc.description: The file attached to this record is the author's final peer reviewed version.; open access article

  • dc.title: Experimental investigation of aerodynamic hysteresis using a 5-DoF wind tunnel manoeuvre rig dc.contributor.author: Gong, Z.; Araujo-Estrada, Sergio A.; Lowenberg, M. H.; Neild, Simon; Goman, M. (Mikhail G.) dc.description.abstract: The high-incidence aerodynamics of a lightweight jet trainer aircraft model has been investigated using a novel five-degree-of-freedom (DOF) dynamic maneuver rig, recently updated with improved actuation and data acquisition systems, in the 7 脳 5 ft closed-section low-speed wind tunnel at the University of Bristol. The major focus was to identify the nonlinear and unsteady aerodynamic characteristics specific to the stall region and which affect free-to-move aircraft-model behavior. First, the unstable equilibrium states in the limit-cycle regions were stabilized, and so observed, over a wide range of angles of attack using a simple elevator feedback control lawbased on pitch angle and pitch-rate sensor measurements. Tests with two DOF, namely, the aircraft model and rig-arm pitch angles, revealed the existence of static hysteresis in the normal force acting on the aircraft model in the stall region. Unlocking the aircraft model in roll and yaw accompanied by feedback stabilization of the lateral鈥揹irectional modes of motion demonstrated the onset of asymmetric aerodynamic rolling and yawing moments in this four-DOF configuration. This observation implicitly indicates a link between the static hystereses in the normal aerodynamic force with an onset of aerodynamic asymmetry. The experimental results show the efficiency of the updated multi-DOF actively controlled maneuver rig in providing insight into complicated aerodynamic effects within the stall region. dc.description: Open Access article

  • dc.title: Impact of Ground Effect on Airplane Lateral Directional Stability during Take-Off and Landing dc.contributor.author: Sereez, Mohamed; Abramov, Nikolay; Goman, M. (Mikhail G.) dc.description.abstract: Computational simulations of aerodynamic characteristics of the Common Research Model (CRM), representing a typical transport airliner are conducted using CFD methods in close proximity to the ground. The obtained dependencies on bank angle for aerodynamic forces and moments are further used in stability and controllability analysis of the lateral-directional aircraft motion. Essential changes in the lateral-directional modes in close proximity to the ground have been identified. For example, with approach to the ground, the roll subsidence and spiral eigenvalues are merging creating the oscillatory Roll-Spiral mode with quite significant frequency. This transformation of the lateral-directional dynamics in piloted simulation may affect the aircraft responses to external crosswind, modify handling quality characteristics and improve realism of crosswind landing. The material of this paper was presented at the Seventh European Conference for Aeronautics and Space Sciences EUCASS-2017. Further work is carried out for evaluation of the ground effect aerodynamics for a high-lift configuration based on a hybrid geometry of DLR F11 and NASA GTM models with fully deployed flaps and slats. Some aspects of grid generation for a high lift configuration using structured blocking approach are discussed. dc.description: Open Access journal
