Optimization of geometric parameters of latticed structures using genetic algorithm
Amir H. Hashemian, Mohammad H. Kargarnovin, Jafar E. JamThe purpose of this paper is to analyze a squared lattice cylindrical shell under compressive axial load and to optimize the geometric parameters to achieve the maximum buckling…
Outgassing studies on thermal control coatings for micro‐satellites
Sunil Chandrakant JoshiWith the advent of micro‐satellites technology, passive thermal controls in the form of surface coatings have become important for onboard thermal management. The thermal…
Validation of comprehensive dynamics analysis predictions for a rotor in descending flight
Jae S. Park, Sung N. Jung, Young H. You, Soo H. Park, Yung H. YuThe purpose of this paper is to evaluate the prediction capability of comprehensive structural dynamics (CSD) analysis codes for the higher harmonic control aeroacoustic rotor…
Optical flow‐based obstacle avoidance of a fixed‐wing MAV
Mahdi Rezaei, Fariborz SaghafiThe purpose of this paper is to describe optical flow‐based navigation of a very light fixed‐wing aircraft in flight between obstacles.
Aircraft terrain following flights based on fuzzy logic
Mohammad Rahim, Seyed Móhammad‐Bagher MalaekThe purpose of this paper is to present a novel approach in terrain following (TF) flight using fuzzy logic. The fuzzy controller as presented in this work decides where and how…
