Noise Prediction within Conceptual Aircraft Design

, 2013
Motivation for the presented activities is the integration of noise as an additional objective in conceptual aircraft design. Therefore, the Parametric Aircraft Noise Analysis Module (PANAM) is developed to account for individual noise sources depending on their geometry and operating conditions.

Aircraft Conceptual Design Using Vehicle Sketch Pad [PDF]

48th AIAA Aerospace Sciences Meeting Including the New Horizons Forum and Aerospace Exposition, 2010
Vehicle Sketch Pad (VSP) is a parametric geometry modeling tool that is intended for use in the conceptual design of aircraft. The intent of this software is to rapidly model aircraft configurations without expending the expertise and time that is typically required for modeling with traditional Computer Aided Design (CAD) packages.

An Integrated Method for Determination of the Oswald Factor in a Multi-Fidelity Design Environment [PDF]

, 2011
Aircraft conceptual design often focuses on unconventional configurations like for example forward swept wings. Assessing the characteristics of these configurations usually requires the use of physic based analysis modules.

Conceptual Design of Hybrid-Electric Aircraft

, 2022
This work aims at establishing a design procedure applicable to hybrid-electric, full-electric, or conventional aircraft. Firstly, the author introduces a mathematical model to describe the dynamics of the propulsive system. Then, the effects associated with the new propulsive system introduced are measured.

Open Vehicle Sketch Pad Aircraft Modeling Strategies [PDF]

, 2013
Geometric modeling of aircraft during the Conceptual design phase is very different from that needed for the Preliminary or Detailed design phases. The Conceptual design phase is characterized by the rapid, multi-disciplinary analysis of many design ...
