  1. 6. Conceptual Design of a Small­ Size Unmanned Air Vehicle : Part A: Aerodynamic Performance and Structural Design

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

    Author : Adrian Pellnäs; Johanna Sandeberg; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In this report, the conceptual design of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and aerodynamic analysis is treated. The project was split into two groups, one group would do the aerodynamic analysis, and the other group would do the performance analysis. READ MORE

  2. 7. Conceptual Design of a Small Size Unmanned Air Vehicle : Part B: Flight Performance and Flight Mechanics

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

    Author : Arastoo Bayati; Peter Reinders; [2021]
    Keywords : UAV; VTOL; Flight mechanics;

    Abstract : This report summarizes the task of conceptually designing an UAV suited for agricultural observation of Swedish farmland. The design of the UAV was divided into two parts. This report focuses on the flight mechanics, performance analysis, and cost analysis of the UAV, whereas the other part centers around the aerodynamic performance. READ MORE

    Abstract : The space industry and the technological developments regarding space exploration hasn’t been this popular since the first moon landing. The privatization of space exploration and the vertical landing rockets made rocket science mainstream again. READ MORE

  4. 9. Study of Launcher Recovery Systems

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Rymdteknik

    Author : Mauro Rojas Sigala; [2020]
    Keywords : Reusability; Launcher; Propulsion;

    Abstract : The space sector has been evolving due to the fast-technological advancements generating a reduction of manufacturing, cost and size in space missions, where highly capable performing small satellites are becoming the standard in this industry. Furthermore, the high launching cost limits the trend of cost reduction for the space missions, since the small satellites are sent as a second payload. READ MORE
