Modal Tilt/Translate Control and Stability of a Rigid Rotor with Gyroscopics on Active Magnetic Bearings

open access: yesInternational Journal of Rotating Machinery, 2012
Most industrial rotors supported in active magnetic bearings (AMBs) are operated well below the first bending critical speed. Also, they are usually controlled using proportional, integral and derivative controllers, which are set up as modally uncoupled

Structural Design and Real-World Flight Verification of a Downwash-Reducing UAV Equipped With Adaptive Rotors

open access: yesIEEE Access
This study addresses the challenge of excessive downwash generated by uncrewed aerial vehicles (UAVs) during pinpoint weeding in agriculture. We propose a novel UAV design incorporating adaptive rotors that can tilt during flight to reduce the downward ...

Improvements to tilt rotor performance through passive blade twist control [PDF]

open access: yes
A passive blade twist control is presented in which the twist distribution of a tilt rotor blade is elastically changed as a function of rotor speed. The elastic twist deformation is used to achieve two different blade twist distributions corresponding ...
