Rotorcraft Aeromechanics

Journal of the American Helicopter Society, 2013
A rotorcraft is a class of aircraft that uses large-diameter rotating wings to accomplish efficient vertical take-off and landing. The class encompasses helicopters of numerous configurations (single main rotor and tail rotor, tandem rotors, coaxial rotors), tilting proprotor aircraft, compound helicopters, and many other innovative configuration ...

Rotorcraft Trends

Aircraft Engineering and Aerospace Technology, 1985
AGAINST the background briefly outlined together with the development of increasingly sophisticated powerplants as well as the research activities conducted into the operational aspects of rotating wing aircraft, it was realised that major benefits could be expected from fully exploiting health monitoring techniques.

British Rotorcraft

The Journal of the Royal Aeronautical Society, 1966
This brief historical note on British rotorcraft may be likened to the small visible part of a large iceberg and the reasons for it are these.When I was asked to write this note for the Society's Journal I agreed to undertake the task with certain reservations. In the first instance there was very little time in which to do it.

Robotic rotorcraft

The Aeronautical Journal, 2003
A few of us, like Tennyson, have the gift of foreseeing the future. (see Fig. I). Another few, like Juan de la Cierva have the gift of delivering the future. They are the innovators.Those who know Tennyson's verse will recall that his vision was of transportation by air of people and freight and also sadly of weapons.

Rotorcraft noise model

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1997
The rotorcraft noise model (RNM) is a multiplatform computer program being developed for NASA-Langley Research Center which calculates sound levels at receiver positions on the ground from helicopter and tiltrotor operations. RNM calculates levels at positions on a uniform grid or a specific defined locations.

The quiet rotorcraft

Physics Bulletin, 1971
Noise within the vicinity of many airports is gradually reaching intolerable levels and action is urgently required to prevent a further deterioration of this situation. The introduction of special take off flight paths and noise monitoring near airports has restricted the spread of the 'take off' noise.

Piezoelectric Deicing System for Rotorcraft

Journal of the American Helicopter Society, 2015
Deicing using piezoelectric actuators is considered as a potential solution to the development of low-energy ice protection systems for rotorcraft. This type of system activates resonant frequencies of a structure using piezoelectric actuators to generate sufficient stress to break the bond between the ice and the substrate.
