Aerodynamics coefficients of NASA common research model (NASA-CRM) are computationally investigated by revisiting some test cases appeared in aerodynamics prediction challenge (APC) using high-order discontinuous Galerkin (DG) methods. While the employed high-order DG methods reasonably well predict the overall aerodynamics for the NASA-CRM, some discrepancies appear between the CFD and experimental data, especially in a lift and a pitching moment at low angle of attack. Although those discrepancies still exist, installing a sting enhances the reproduction of experimental data of pitching moment. Additionally, fluid-structure coupled simulations used to consider aero-elastic deformations give better agreements of the pitching moment with experimental data.
