Sandwich hybrid structural component for tilt rotor aircraft

2023
Sandwich structures have been increasingly used due to their high strength-to-weight ratio and bending and buckling resistance. Today, it is possible to create topology-optimised structures with complex shapes using lattice structures through Additive Manufacturing technologies, avoiding the difficulties in coresheets adhesion in sandwich structures ...

Wind-tunnel tests of a tilt-rotor aircraft

The Aeronautical Journal, 2011
AbstractA wide aerodynamic test campaign has been carried out on the tiltrotor aircraft ERICA at the Large Wind Tunnel of Politecnico di Milano by means of a modular 1:8 scale model in order to produce a dataset necessary to better understand the aerodynamic behaviour of the aircraft and to state its definitive design.The target of the tests was the ...

Fused-PID Control for Tilt-Rotor VTOL Aircraft

2020 28th Mediterranean Conference on Control and Automation (MED), 2020
This work presents a fused-PID (FPID) control strategy for a tilt-quadrotor VTOL (vertical takeoff and landing) where the FPID generates attitude setpoints based on the pilot's velocity commands. The FPID controller consists of two separate PID controllers where one can handle fixed-wing aircraft and the other is designed for multicopters.

Modeling and Simulation of a Quad-Tilt Rotor Aircraft

IFAC Proceedings Volumes, 2013
Abstract Multi-rotor autonomous aerial vehicles have been proposed for several missions where the capability of controlled flight in small areas is required. Unfortunately, small-size electrically powered rotary wings UAVs have usually very short endurance, because of inherent limitation in battery energy density and constraints on maximum weight of ...

Modeling and control of tilt-rotor aircraft

2016 Chinese Control and Decision Conference (CCDC), 2016
In this paper, a flight dynamics model of a tiltrotor aircraft is developed used basic equations of motion. This model focuses on control aspect of tiltrotor and is able to show inherent tiltrotor characteristics; then a flight control system is designed used novel L1 adaptive control theory.

XV-15 Tilt Rotor Research Aircraft - Program report

Atlantic Aeronautical Conference, 1979
This paper is a status report of the NASA/Army XV-15 Project. The basic tilt-rotor concept and the XV-15 Tilt-Rotor Research Aircraft are discussed and some results of full-scale wind-tunnel tests in the Ames 40- by 80-Foot Wind Tunnel are presented. Flight-test data are included to give preliminary performance, noise, and vibration data in hover and ...
