The case for open source software in aeronautics
Sven Ziemer, Gernot StenzThe purpose of this paper is to promote the opportunities of open source software (OSS) development in aeronautics. Using the development of an open source framework for…
RDS‐SUMO: from lofting to physics‐based grids
Mengmeng Zhang, Arthur RizziThe goal for this paper is to bring the easy‐to‐use geometry drawing software RDS to a “solid” mesh, which could be analyzed and simulated in CEASIOM, to enhance both CEASIOM and…
Development and validation of on‐board systems control laws
Giovanni Medici, Nicole Viola, Sabrina Corpino, Marco FioritiThe purpose of this paper is to describe the tool and procedure developed in order to design the control laws of several UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) sub‐systems. The authors…
Aircraft design using a variable density model
Valeriy A. Komarov, Andrey V. Boldyrev, Anton S. Kuznetsov, Marina Yu. LaptevaThe purpose of this paper is to present an overview of the aircraft design problems which can be efficiently solved using a special solid finite‐element model of variable density.
Significance of modifications for development of passenger airplanes
Pavel Zhuravlev, Vladimir ZhuravlevThe purpose of this paper is to analyze the design experience of creation of passenger airplane families. Methods of taking into account future modifications for family creation…
