Particle Filtering-Based In-Flight Icing Detection for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles [PDF]
SensorsIce accretion poses a threat to fixed-wing aerial vehicles as it alters the wings’ shape and thus degrades the aerodynamic performance. In manned aircraft, the icing detection system assists the pilot and utilises dedicated sensors.

Ice accretion compositions in ice crystal icing
International Journal of Heat and Mass Transfer, 2023 Ice crystal icing is a major hazard in aviation from the perspectives of aerodynamic deterioration, flight safety and operability. To counter this challenge, existing ice prediction tools require more accurate modeling of sticking efficiency of glaciated ice crystals on heated substrates. As part of the present study, icing wind tunnel experiments have

Ice Accretion on Rotary-Wing Unmanned Aerial Vehicles—A Review Study
Aerospace, 2023 Ice accretion on rotary-wing unmanned aerial vehicles (RWUAVs) needs to be studied separately from the fixed-wing UAVs because of the additional flow complexities induced by the propeller rotation.
