Abstract
A high order boundary element formulation is presented and applied to the solution of potential, incompressible flows around non-lifting and lifting configurations. The high order numerical algorithm is based o n a bicubic interpolation of both geometry and quantities over each el ement of discretisation of the boundary. Numerical validation of the f ormulation is performed by studying the aerodynamic solution around fu selages and wings, and making comparisons with existing numerical resu lts.
