Review on Icephobicity of Materials Surface Enhanced by Interface Action Force

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, Volume 12, Issue 6, March 16, 2025.
As ‘energy‐free’ passive anti‐icing strategies have not yet been effectively implemented, a comprehensive understanding of the mechanisms through which mechanical forces influence the evolution of solid‐liquid, solid‐liquid/ice interfaces, and solid‐ice interfaces, as well as the integration of mechanical forces with various types of active/passive ...

A Data‐Driven Approach for the Prediction of Reynolds Number Effects on Wind Turbine Airfoil Aerodynamic Polars

open access: yesWind Energy, Volume 28, Issue 3, March 2025.
ABSTRACT This study presents a data‐driven approach to extrapolate and predict Reynolds number effects on wind turbine airfoil polars. For this purpose, a database is created using experimentally obtained aerodynamic coefficients from open literature for airfoils with thickness‐to‐chord ratio (t/c) values in the range of 15% to 30% in order to be more ...

The use of active controls to augment rotor/fuselage stability [PDF]

open access: yes, 1985
The use of active blade pitch control to increase helicopter rotor/body damping is studied. Control is introduced through a conventional nonrotating swashplate. State variable feedback of rotor and body states is used.

Smart actuation for helicopter rotorblades [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Successful rotorcrafts were only achieved when the differences between hovering flight conditions and a stable forward flight were understood. During hovering, the air speed on all helicopter blades is linearly distributed along each blade and is the ...

Simulation of tail boom vibrations using main rotor-fuselage Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In this work, fully-resolved rotor-fuselage interactional aerodynamics is used as the forcing term in a model based on the Euler-Bernoulli equation, aiming to simulate helicopter tail-boom vibration.

Investigation of the Effect of Blade Sweep on Rotor Vibratory Loads [PDF]

open access: yes
The effect of helicopter rotor blade planform sweep on rotor vibratory hub, blade, and control system loads has been analytically investigated. The importance of sweep angle, sweep initiation radius, flap bending stiffness and torsion bending stiffness ...

Numerical modelling of the aerodynamic interference between helicopter and ground obstacles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Helicopters are frequently operating in confined areas where the complex flow fields that develop in windy conditions may result in dangerous situations.
