The meshless technology of XFlow allows complex fluid-structure interactions such as this spin tunnel test of the D-JET from Diamond Aircraft.
The plane is fixed in translation and has three degrees of freedom in the three rotations: roll, pitch and yaw. After a short transient phase, the plane starts to stabilize its yaw rate when the reattachment of the flow on its left wing occurs leading to a smooth and realistic spinning motion.
