Numerical Simulation of Aircraft Icing under Local Thermal Protection State
The icing phenomenon seriously threatens flight safety, and, therefore, the aircraft needs to be equipped with an icing protection system. Icing may still occur when the anti-icing system is in operation when the protection range or protection power is ...

Improving mechanical ice protection systems with topology optimization
In the context of more electrical aircraft, electromechanical de-icing systems provide a low-energy solution to protect aircraft surfaces from ice buildup. Such systems produce deformation of the protected surface leading to stress production within the ice and, ultimately, to ice shedding thanks to fracture. However, these systems may show limitations

Experimental Heat Loads for Electrothermal Anti-Icing and De-Icing on UAVs
Atmospheric in-flight icing on unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) is a significant hazard. UAVs that are not equipped with ice protection systems are usually limited to operations within visual line of sight or to weather conditions without icing risk.

Electromechanical Resonant Ice Protection Systems: Energetic and Power Considerations [PDF]
This article focuses on resonant ice protection systems and proposes key performance indicators to analyze the performances of such systems with respect to levels of energy, force, and power required for de-icing. The principle of these systems is to apply vibrations or ultrasonic waves onto the structure that create high-level stresses greater than ...
