Capabilities

Aerodynamics and Hydrodynamics

AMA provides all levels of aerodynamic and hydrodynamic design and analysis ranging from basic engineering methods to advanced CFD calculations. The software packages, coupled with AMA’s experience analyzing complex fluid phenomena, are applied to customer's problems to achieve accurate and efficient solutions. Practical project experience in both analytical and experimental aerodynamic techniques is the basis for AMA’s excellent reputation for delivering results for commercial programs.

AMA is involved in applied research in the areas of aircraft and missile aerodynamics, submersible hydrodynamics, experimental programs, and fluid mechanics problems associated with energy. AMA’s prediction techniques can be used at the preliminary and detailed design levels on diverse vehicle configurations experiencing a wide range of flow phenomena. AMA's goal is to provide the most useful, accurate, engineering prediction methods possible using the latest technology to our customers.

Besides our AMA Aerodynamic and Simulation Suite packages, AMA has experience using government developed aerodynamic codes such as the US Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC) Aero-Prediction codes, the US Air Force's Missile DATCOM, and MADM, SHABP, HABP (Hypersonic Arbitrary Body Program). AMA maintains a variety of CFD codes such as OVERFLOW and Cart3D.

Advanced Computational Fluid Dynamics

AMA utilizes advanced analytical and computational techniques to provide services in topics such as transonic flow theory, turbomachinery, numerical analysis, and turbulent flow studies.
