The tail boom strake

Mark Adams, Simon Newman

A helicopter tail rotor is required to provide yaw control and essentially that alone. However, it is expected to achieve that role when placed in an aerodynamically difficult…

A novel micro‐scale light‐sail and thin‐film beam‐generator

Forrest Bishop

“Microscale light sails” (MLS) are simultaneously manufactured and launched as a matter‐beam from a proposed Lunar facility. Lunar aluminum would be refined for the feedstock of…

Mathematical modeling of helicopter aerobatic maneuvers

Yihua Cao, Guangli Zhang, Yuan Su

This paper describes the typical maneuvering courses of helicopters with mathematics systematically and presents the formulas and approaches for calculating the dynamics…

A method of separation of an aircraft motion on a roll and sideslip

Y.A. Vershinin

The requirements to maneuver a modern aircraft involve the development and realization of advanced control of a longitudinal and lateral aircraft motion. The manual control system…

Error analysis and motion determination of a flight simulator

Sait N. Yurt, İbrahim Ozkol, Chingiz Hajiyev

A flight simulator must be designed to generate the correct acceleration cues, attitudes and vibrations to the flight compartment to provide an extra degree of realism for the…

Optimal trajectories of air and space vehicles

Alexander Bolonkin

The author developed a theory of optimal trajectories for air vehicles with variable wing area and conventional wings. He applied a new theory of singular optimal solutions and…

Parachute flying physical model and inflation simulation analysis

Yihua Cao, Hong Xu

By means of establishing parachute’s flying physical model, four methods (i.e. tiny segment analysis method, inflating distance method, moment method and simulating canopy shape…
