Assessment of a Mid-Fidelity Numerical Approach for the Investigation of Tiltrotor Aerodynamics
The study of the complex aerodynamics that characterise tiltrotors represents a challenge for computational fluid dynamics tools. URANS numerical solvers are typically used to explore the aerodynamic features that characterise the different flight ...

Large‐slenderness‐ratio aircraft in which a large portion of the aircraft’s mass is concentrated along its centreline face the problem of severe lateral‐directional coupling. Previous research has not fully considered the inertia product when conducting stability analyses of such aircraft. However, neglecting the inertia product may threaten the safety

This study applies a novel cloud seeding method using an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and a research aircraft in Korea. For this experiment, the UAV sprayed a cloud seeding material (calcium chloride), and the aircraft monitored the clouds in the southern part of the Korean Peninsula on April 25, 2019.

Hybrid Adaptive Control for Tiltrotor Aircraft Flight Control Law Reconfiguration
Tiltrotor aircrafts have both fixed-wing control surfaces and helicopter rotors for attitude control. The redundancy of control surfaces provides the possibility for the control system to reconfigure the control law when actuator faults occur during ...

Modeling and Design of an Aircraft‐Mode Controller for a Fixed‐Wing VTOL UAV
Vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) is an essential feature of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). On the one hand, VTOL can expand and enhance the applications of UAVs; yet, on the other hand, it makes the design of control systems for UAVs more complicated.

Whirl Flutter Suppression of Tiltrotor Aircraft Using Actively Controlled Aileron
Whirl flutter of a tiltrotor aircraft is a complex aeroelastic phenomenon and it can result in catastrophic consequences. The deflection of an aileron mounted on a wing has the potential to solve this fatal problem.
