1. Modelling & Analysis of a TiltWing Aircraft
University essay from KTH/FlygdynamikAbstract : The aim of this report is the investigation of a hybrid vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) tilt wing aircraft which is in development at the company Dufour Aerospace. Using a model, programmed in MATLAB® different stages of flight can be simulated and investigated. READ MORE

2. Aerodynamics and Structure of a Large UAV
University essay from Mälardalens högskola/Akademin för innovation, design och teknikAbstract : This thesis investigates what design of a large UAV performing VTOL using only electrical motors is the most viable in terms of extending its range. Because it uses batteries for power, its powered time is limited, posing the need for a way of extending its flight time. READ MORE

3. Modelling, Control, and Experimental Evaluation of the Hovering Characteristics of a Tilt-Wing Unmanned Aerial Vehicle
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknikAbstract : A Tilt-Wing Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (TW-UAV) and the preliminary evaluation of its hovering characteristics in extended simulation studies and experiments are presented in this Master Thesis. In the beginning, an overview of the TW-UAV's design properties are established, highlighting the novelties of the proposed structure and the overall merits. READ MORE

4. Aerodynamic characterisation of an experimental tilt-wing aircraft
University essay from KTH/FlygdynamikAbstract : Computational analysis of experimental aircraft prior to test ights can be a valuable tool to estimate ight characteristics and determine areas of elevated caution. It can also provide feedback to software and model developers as to the accuracy of models used when the aircraft is ultimately own. READ MORE
