Some Peculiarities of Helicopter Main Rotor Aeroacoustic for Far-Field Observer [PDF]

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2019
Mathematical models for helicopter rotor acoustics are usually based on the Ffowcs Williams–Hawkings (FW–H) equation. The level of rotor noise is determined by geometry (thickness noise) of a flying vehicle and distributed blade loading (loading noise ...

Mental Workload Measurement in Helicopter Maintenance: Comparing Virtual Reality Simulation and Real‐World Conditions

Human Factors and Ergonomics in Manufacturing &Service Industries, Volume 36, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Designing tomorrow's maintenance systems with a human‐centered approach is crucial to ensure optimal safety and performance. A key prerequisite for achieving this goal is to anticipate operators' cognitive behavior early in the design cycle. This study aims to determine whether the combination of mental workload measurement tools, including ...

One‐Dimensional Finite Elements With Arbitrary Cross‐Sectional Displacement Fields

International Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering, Volume 127, Issue 1, 15 January 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper introduces an unprecedented unified approach for developing structural theories with an arbitrary kinematic variable over the beam cross‐section. Each of the three displacement variables can be analyzed using an independent expansion function. Both the order of the expansion and the number of terms in each field can be any. That is,
