  • National Aeronautics and Space Administration
    COMPUTATIONAL FLUID DYNAMICS (CFD) TOOLS ARE A KEY COMPONENT IN THE DESIGN-VALIDATION CYCLE OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE AIR-BREATHING PROPULSION SYSTEM FOR THE HIGHLY RELIABLE REUSABLE LAUNCH SYSTEM (HRRLS). IT IS REQUIRED THAT THE CFD TOOLS PROVIDE THE PREDICTIONS OF THE INTERNAL FLOW FIELD IN A PROPULSION SYSTEM NOT ONLY ACCURATELY, BUT ALSO EFFICIENTLY. NASA'S VISCOUS UPWIND ALGORITHM FOR COMPLEX FLOW ANALYSIS CODE (VULCAN), A MULTI-BLOCK STRUCTURED-MESH NAVIER-STOKES SOLVER FOR GENERAL REACTIVE FLOWS, IS CONSIDERED THE STATE OF THE ART FOR THE NUMERICAL SIMULATION OF SUCH INTERNAL FLOWS. IN MOST CASES, STRUCTURED MESHES ARE NEAR OPTIMAL FOR SUCH SYSTEMS, BUT AS THEY BECOME MORE GEOMETRICALLY COMPLEX, THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF TIME REQUIRED TO CONDUCT A TIP-TO-TAIL ANALYSIS OF A NEW CONFIGURATION IS DOMINATED BY THE TIME REQUIRED TO GENERATE A GOOD QUALITY STRUCTURED MESH. THE PROPOSED WORK DIRECTLY CONTRIBUTES TO NRA TOPIC AREAS A.5.2.1, A.5.2.2, AND A.5.2.3 FOR HYPERSONICS, IN ITS FOCUS ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF ADVANCED TIME-DEPENDENT FLOW FIELD PREDICTION METHODS SUITABLE FOR DESIGN, ANALYSIS, AND OPTIMIZATION OF NEW CONCEPTS FOR HIGH-SPEED VEHICLE PROPULSION. EXPECTED IMPROVEMENTS IN PREDICTIVE CAPABILITY PROVIDED BY THE PROPOSED TECHNIQUES SHOULD TRANSLATE INTO UNCERTAINTY REDUCTION, INCREASED RELIABILITY, AND MORE OPTIMAL DESIGNS FOR SUCH CONCEPTS. THE OBJECTIVE OF THE PROPOSED WORK IS TO DEVELOP A REGIONAL UNSTRUCTURED-MESH TECHNOLOGY THAT WILL INITIALLY BE USED TO AUTOMATICALLY CONNECT EXISTING NON-C PATCHES IN A FULLY CONSERVATIVE, ACCURATE MANNER WITH MAJOR GOALS AND RELATED MILESTONES THROUGH INTEGRATION OF THE FVFLO-NCS INTO THE VULCAN CODE. VULCAN'S USE OF REGIONS WHERE DIFFERENT SOLVERS MAY BE ACTIVATED IS DIRECTLY COMPATIBLE WITH THE PROPOSED ADDITIONS IN THAT THE DATA STRUCTURES NECESSARY FOR THE UNSTRUCTURED SOLVER WILL BE BUILT AND ACCESSED SEPARATELY FROM THOSE USED IN OTHER SOLVERS IN VULCAN. THE UNSTRUCTURED-MESH SOLVER WILL BE BASED ON A VARIANT OF THE FEFLO CODE [7-14], NAMED FVFLO-NCS.

About this data

This profile aggregates federal enforcement records on NORTH CAROLINA STATE UNIVERSITY from every major federal compliance and enforcement source plus the UVA Corporate Prosecution Registry. OSHA workplace safety inspections, WHD wage cases, MSHA mine safety, EPA environmental enforcement, NLRB labor relations, OFLC visa/labor certification, FMCSA motor carrier registration, SAM.gov debarments, CMS nursing-home records, BLS industry safety benchmarks, OSHA ITA self-reported injury rates, SEC enforcement and financial disclosures, CPSC and NHTSA recalls.

Establishments are matched across agencies using normalized employer name, state, and ZIP code.

OSHA citations typically appear 3–8 months after the inspection, so very recent enforcement actions may not yet be reflected. Profiles may be incomplete if the establishment operates under multiple legal names or files under variations our entity-matching rules don’t yet cover. To report a missing record or correction, email corrections@fastdol.com.
