This thesis treats the problem of incompressible two-dimensional
steady flow past airfoils or airfoil combinations
at large angles of attack. A panel method was developed to
compute the inviscid flow over two cylinders, airfoil-flap
combinations and airfoils in ground effect. In addition,
Cebeci's viscous/inviscid interaction method was applied to
several airfoils and compared with available experimental
data. The agreement is generally quite encouraging.
