Example #7. DES ground wind simulation on ARES configuration

DES/BDF2 simulation of ARES concept experiencing ground winds on launch pad. Objective is to provide frequency content to loads/structures group for tower analysis. Grid contains 21.5M nodes, 126M elements; grid refinement performed in wake region. Run on 256 cores for approximately one month. Actual geometry not shown.
