This work addresses the involuntary interaction between the pilot and the vehicle, with specific reference to helicopters along the vertical (or heave) axis. The problem is described and formulated mathematically. Means of analysis are discussed. Focus is... see more

Aircraft-Pilot Couplings, namely the adverse interaction of the pilot with the aeromechanics of aircraft, are potentially dangerous phenomena. The prediction of aircraft proneness to this type of phenomena is usually difficult prior to flight testing. The... see more

Quadcopter merupakan salah salah satu jenis rotorcraft yang memiliki 4 buah rotor yang harus dikendalikan masing-masing rotornya untuk dapat menggerakkan quadcopter. Gerak lateral merupakan gerak quadcopter secara horizontal pada ketinggian atau gerak tra... see more

Boundary Element Method (BEM) is a widely used technique for the aerodynamic analysis of lifting bodies, due to the good compromise between fidelity and computational costs. This is especially true in rotorcraft applications, where the effects of the roto... see more

This paper presents an investigation into the design of a flight control system, using a decoupled non-linear sliding mode control structure, designed using a linearised, 9th order representation of the dynamics of a PUMA helicopter in hover. The controll... see more

Advanced computer-aided technologies played a crucial role in the design of an unconventional Uninhabited Aerial Vehicle (UAV), developed at the Turin Technical University and the University of Rome “La Sapienza”. The engine unit of the vehicle is made of... see more

Virtual control surfaces for the optimization of steady and unsteady airloads on a compressor cascade are assessed numerically. The effects of mechanical surfaces are realized with plasma actuators, located both on the pressure and on the suction side of ... see more

The aerodynamic design of rotor blades is challenging, and is crucial for the development of helicopter technology. Previous aerodynamic optimizations that focused only on limited design points find it difficult to balance flight performance across the en... see more

Aerodynamic interactions between rotors are important factors affecting the performance of in-plane multirotor Unmanned Air Vehicles (UAVs) or drones, which are the majority of small size UAVs (or mini-drones). Optimal design requires knowledge of the flo... see more
