Aircraft flutter prediction using experimental modal parameters
Achuthan C. Pankaj, G. Shanthini, M.V. Shivaprasad, M. ManjuprasadTraditional dynamic and flutter analysis demands a detailed finite element model of the aircraft in terms of its mass and stiffness distribution. However, in absence of these…
Aerodynamic performance of Parastoo UAV
Esmaeel Eslami, Mehran Tadjfar, Saman NajafiThe purpose of this paper is to investigate the flow around Parastoo UAV's wing, with the aim of improving its aerodynamic performance. A major source of concern is the use of…
Artificial bee colony optimized controller for unmanned rotorcraft pendulum
Sun Changhao, Haibin DuanThe purpose of this paper is to propose a new algorithm for pendulum‐like oscillation control of an unmanned rotorcraft (UR) in a reconnaissance mission and improve the…
Health‐state evaluation for aerospace systems
Xiaodong Tan, Jing Qiu, Guanjun Liu, Kehong LvThe purpose of this paper is to evaluate the health‐states of unit under test (UUT) in aerospace systems by means of unreliable test outcomes, and the evaluation results can…
Pinch‐and‐pull with spatial‐temporal energy trajectory: new display concept for in‐flight energy management
Fan Han, W B.L., Stephen GaukrodgerThe purpose of this paper is to present a new visualization display based on a pinch‐and‐pull concept with 4D spatial‐temporal energy trajectory (4DET), for energy profile…
A new standard instrument arrival: the point merge system
Özlem Sahin Meric, Oznur UsanmazThe purpose of this paper is to design a new standard instrument arrival called the point merge system (PMS) for converging runways. The PMS enables controllers to handle traffic…
Blending optimal algorithm for heliocentric solar sailing
Xiaoning Shi, Jifeng Guo, Naigang Cui, Rong HuangThe purpose of this paper is to design a solar sail heliocentric transfer orbit which can meet the requirements of control system and capture orbit, and to provide the change of…
