Lifting surface theory for a helicopter rotor in forward flight [PDF]
A lifting surface theory was developed for a helicopter rotor in forward flight for compressible and incompressible flow. The method utilizes the concept of the linearized acceleration potential and makes use of the vortex lattice procedure. Calculations

INTERFERENCE BETWEEN HELICOPTER AND ITS SURROUNDINGS, EXPERIMENTAL AND NUMERICAL ANALYSIS
The paper describes the phenomenon of the occurrence of aerodynamic interference between a helicopter and an object in its near vicinity. Such situations occur during rescue missions as well as during police and military operations when the helicopter ...

Research of the crosswind effect on the single-rotor helicopter unintentional yaw rotation
During the operation of single-rotor helicopters, aviation accidents quite frequently occur in the form of an unintentional turn or even a yaw rotation, causing, as a rule, a ground collision.

Reduction of high-speed impulsive noise by blade planform modification of a model helicopter rotor [PDF]
The reduction of high speed impulsive noise for the UH-1H helicopter was investigated by using an advanced main rotor system. The advanced rotor system had a tapered blade planform compared with the rectangular planform of the standard rotor system ...

Development of an aeroelastic stability boundary for a rotor in autorotation [PDF]
<p>For the present study, a mathematical model AMRA was created to simulate the aeroelastic behaviour of a rotor during autorotation. Our model: Aeroelastic Model of a Rotor in Autorotation (AMRA) captures transverse bending and teeter ...
