Unfalsified control design using a generalized cost function for a quadrotor
Azam Hokmabadi, Mahdi KhodabandehThe purpose of this paper is to design a controller for a quadrotor only by using input–output data without a need for the system model.
Flow separation control using a bio-inspired nose for NACA 4 and 6 series airfoils
Mohamed Arif Raj Mohamed, Rajesh Yadav, Ugur GuvenThis paper aims to achieve an optimum flow separation control over the airfoil using a passive flow control method by introducing a bio-inspired nose near the leading edge of the…
Constructive schemes to spacecraft attitude control with low communication frequency using sampled-data and encryption approaches
Chengxi Zhang, Jin Wu, Yulong Huang, Yu Jiang, Ming-zhe Dai, Mingjiang WangRecent spacecraft attitude control systems tend to use wireless communication for cost-saving and distributed mission purposes while encountering limited communication resources…
Aerodynamic and static stability investigation into aircraft coupled system to suborbital space flights
Marcin Figat, Agnieszka KwiekThe aim of the research is to conduct a study into a configuration of an aircraft system with a focus on aerodynamics. In addition, trim condition and static stability constraints…
A probabilistic-based analysis for wind distribution determination of a runway
Ahmet Esat Suzer, Aziz KabaThe purpose of this study is to describe precisely the wind speed regime and characteristics of a runway of an International Airport, the north-western part of Turkey.
Free vibration and buckling analysis of FGM plates using inverse trigonometric shear deformation theory
Supen Kumar Sah, Anup GhoshThe purpose of this paper is to carry out free vibration and buckling analysis of functionally graded material (FGM) plate.
Multi-objective optimization model for airport gate assignment problem
Ramazan Kursat CecenThe purpose of this paper is to provide feasible and fast solutions for the multi-objective airport gate assignment problem (AGAP) considering both passenger-oriented and…
Modeling of fuel flow-rate of commercial aircraft for the descent flight using particle swarm optimization
Ridvan Oruc, Tolga BaklaciogluThe purpose of this paper is to create a new fuel flow rate model for the descent phase of the flight using particle swarm optimization (PSO).
Bird strike virtual testing for preliminary airframe design
Petros V. Perdikoulis, Ioannis K. Giannopoulos, Efstathios E. TheotokoglouThe purpose of this paper is to use numerical methods early in the airframe design process and access the structural performance of wing leading edge devices made of different…
Learning from incidents in aircraft maintenance and continuing airworthiness: regulation, practice and gaps
James Clare, Kyriakos I. KourousisThe ability to learn from previous events in support of preventing future similar events is a valuable attribute of aviation safety systems. A primary constituent of this…
High-order derivative fusion estimation of rotorcraft angular rate
Changwu Liu, Haowen Wang, Chen JiangThe paper aims at developing a novel algorithm to estimate high-order derivatives of rotorcraft angular rates to break the contradiction between bandwidth and filtering…
Determining the effect of air transportation on air pollution in the most polluted city in Turkey
Selçuk Gürçam, Emrah Konuralp, Selcuk EkiciThis study was carried out in Igdir, where Turkey’s urban air pollution is at the highest level, and the population is among the smallest. Thus, the study aims to determine the…
