What Panel Methods Can't Do
- Panel methods are inviscid solutions. You will not capture viscous effects except via user “modeling” by changing the geometry.
- Solutions are invalid as soon as the flow develops local supersonic zones (Critical Mach Number)

Famous quotes containing the word methods:
“Parents ought, through their own behavior and the values by which they live, to provide direction for their children. But they need to rid themselves of the idea that there are surefire methods which, when well applied, will produce certain predictable results. Whatever we do with and for our children ought to flow from our understanding of and our feelings for the particular situation and the relation we wish to exist between us and our child.”
—Bruno Bettelheim (20th century)
