These conditions give complex flow phenomena, creating high stresses and vibrations. To accurately predict the flow properties over the relatively flexible rotor blades, coupling between computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and computational structural dynamics (CSD) is required.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003EIn this work, GT-Hybrid, a hybrid wake rotorcraft CFD code that is coupled to DYMORE, is used. A vortex particle method has been implemented in place of the existing lattice methodology. Results have been obtained for two forward flight simulations and are in good agreement with flight test and wind tunnel data.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003EIt is proposed that the GT-Hybrid solver with the vortex particle method be further evaluated by simulating three maneuvering flight conditions \u0026ndash; a pull-up maneuver, and two dive-turn maneuvers.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ECommittee Members\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\nDr. Lakshmi N.
