Abstract:
Dynamic load of helicopter rotors due to gust directly affects the structural stress and flight performance for helicopters. Based on a large deflection beam theory, an aeroelastic model for isolated helicopter rotors in the time domain is constructed. The dynamic response and structural load for a rotor under the impulse gust and slope-shape gust are calculated, respectively. First, a nonlinear Euler beam model with 36 degrees-of-freedoms per element is applied to depict the structural dynamics for an isolated rotor. The generalized dynamic wake model and Leishman-Beddoes dynamic stall model

Recently, the quad-rotor helicopter has gained increasing attention owing to its very good flexibility, its ability to execute various flight missions even in harsh environments.

This paper deals with the tracking control problem of attitude angles for a four-rotor helicopter with external disturbance. A new direct adaptive compensation controller and its parameter adaptive laws are designed based on the Lyapunov stability theory, and the designed contorller can not only compensate the disturbance efficiently, but also can make the attitude angles of the four-rotor helicopter track a given reference output. By using the Barbalat lemma, the systems state tracking performance is proofed. Finally, the proposed adaptive technique is evaluated by a simulation example.

The influence of the rotor solidity on the aerodynamic efficiency in terms of the Figure of Merit is highlighted. The profile drag component is evaluated as a function of the Reynolds number.

Abstract Today’s small rotor helicopter vehicles mostly use electric motors and batteries as power sources. Most helicopter power configurations are either front powered or rear powered, causing the center of the helicopter to be offset. This kind of offset should be overcome by structural compensation or by adjusting the angle of attack of the blades, but some lift of the angle of attack will be sacrifice at the same time.

Abstract The paper explains further developments of a new concept called TNC (Thickness Noise Control) of the application of surface ventilation to the reduction of helicopter rotor low-frequency in-plane harmonic (LF-IPH) noise. The TNC method is based on introduction of four cavities covered by perforated plates (connected to low and high pressure reservoirs) and positioned symmetrically at the front and rear extremities of the blade tip. Two operational modes are analyzed: constant (steady) and periodically varying (unsteady) transpiration mass-fluxes. For exemplary two-bladed model helicop

Abstract:
SUMMARYThis paper presents the design of a controller that allows a four-rotor helicopter to track a desired trajectory in 3D space. To this aim, a dynamic model obtained from Euler-Lagrange equations describes the robot. This model is represented by numerical methods, with which the control actions for the operation of the system are obtained. The proposed controller is simple and presents good performance in face of uncertainties in the model of the system to be controlled. Zero-convergence proof is included, and simulation results show a good performance of the control system.

Abstract:
In this paper, a computational fluid dynamics trimming method is proposed and compared with wind tunnel experiment and the blade element method. The NASA’s generic ROBIN helicopter model is adopted for transient simulations to obtain the final main rotor trimming conditions. Totally three steps were applied to the computational fluid dynamics method. The first step is associated with no cyclic pitch motion, the second is regarding pure longitudinal cyclic pitch motion and the last is concerning with pure lateral cyclic pitch motion.

Abstract:
This paper examines the effectiveness of an embedded spanwise Coriolis absorber in a rotor blade in reducing the in-plane vibratory hub loads. Simulations based on a light, four-bladed, hingeless rotor helicopter similar to the BO-105 showed that in high-speed flight (140 kt), over 85% reductions in both 4/rev longitudinal and lateral hub shears could nominally be achieved using an absorber mass 3% of the blade mass situated at 60% span, oscillating at 3/rev with an amplitude of about 0.03 ft. If the baseline in-plane vibration levels of the helicopter are increased to 0.1–0.12 g, the reductio

Abstract:
Abstract This paper deals with the design and implementation of the nonlinear control algorithm for the attitude tracking of a four-rotor helicopter known as quadrotor. The choice of this algorithm, which is based on the Backstepping sliding mode technique with adaptive gain, was justified by the fact that it ensures robustness with respect to modelling errors and external disturbances while reducing the chattering phenomenon caused by the sign function in the first order sliding mode based controllers with fixed gains. In order to show the effectiveness of the controller, experimental tests w

Abstract:
The article considers the problem of the flow around the helicopter main rotor taking into account blades flapping in the plane of rotation and in the plane of thrust as well as the elastic blades deformation. The rotor rotation is modeled by the method of converting Navier-Stokes equations from a fixed coordinate system associated with the incoming flow into a rotating system associated with the rotor hub. For axial flow problems, this makes it possible to formulate the problem as stationary at a constant rotational speed of rotor. For a mode of skewed flow around the rotor in the terms of in

Abstract:
Abstract The aim of the present work is the investigation about the use of blade trailing-edge flaps for the reduction of vibratory loads arising at the hub of helicopter main rotors in forward flight. The alleviation of these loads is achieved through multicyclic higher harmonic actuation of the blade flaps, which is related to measured vibratory loads amplitude. The feedback control law is obtained by an optimal control process based on the minimisation of a cost function, under the constraint of compatibility with the nonlinear equations governing blade aeroelasticity.

A parallel Navier-Stokes solver based on dynamic overset unstructured grids method is presented to simulate the unsteady turbulent flow field around helicopter in forward flight. The grid method has the advantages of unstructured grid and Chimera grid and is suitable to deal with multiple bodies in relatively moving. Unsteady Navier-Stokes equations are solved on overset unstructured grids by an explicit dual time-stepping, finite volume method. Preconditioning method applied to inner iteration of the dual-time stepping is used to speed up the convergence of numerical simulation. The Spalart-A

Autonomous Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) in the form of multi-rotor system is having a great potential in various applications such as disaster management (as first response system) and surveillance. It is known that conventional helicopter system, capable of hovering, is practical and reliable as many applications have confirmed its capabilities. However it is only achievable once highly optimized control architecture is realized.
