  1. 1. Exploring the materiality of ornithopters

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Constantinos Makris; [2023]
    Keywords : ornithopters; drones; soma-design; bio-inspired robots; HCI; HDI; ornithoptrar; drönare; soma-design; bioinspirerade robotar; HCI; HDI;

    Abstract : A plethora of multi-copter drones can be found in a variety of public and private sectors in society; crime detection, border guard, agricultural inspections, aerial photography, cinematography, television, and entertainment. Unlike commercial drones, ornithopters - flapping bird-like drones - have a very different materiality. READ MORE

  3. 2. Flygmekanik i sidledsmanöver hos Svartvit flugsnappare (Ficedula hypoleuca)

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Examensarbeten i biologi

    Author : Ludwig Nilsson; [2019]
    Keywords : Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : There is not much research done regarding maneouvering flight on Birds. What has been done surrounding the area usually involves steady flight and not maneuvering. For the most part studies concern bats, insects or hummingbirds. READ MORE

  4. 3. Modelling and Identification of a RUAV

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Reglerteknik

    Author : Alaa Saeed; Mattias Mucherie; [2018]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Modelling a linear mathematical model of a radio controlled (RC) helicopter in hover is the main goal of this thesis. The thesis introduces a general description about how RC-helicopters work and different phenomenons that effect the behaviour of a RC-helicopter. These phenomenons play an important role in the modelling part. READ MORE

  5. 4. Finite elements modelling of rotor flapping mass

    University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner

    Author : Elsa Bréus; [2017]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In the frame of increasing flight safety, finite element models are developed to computethe stresses in critical parts. The results obtained often complete the ones derived from fullscale experimental tests and analytical estimations. READ MORE

  6. 5. Aerodynamic Wind Tunnel in Passenger Car Application

    University essay from KTH/Mekanik

    Author : Zhipeng Lyu; [2016]
    Keywords : Vehicle aerodynamics; 1 5th scale wind tunnel; unsteady pressure measurements; wind tunnel effects;

    Abstract : The thesis aims to provide an evaluation on the Volvo 1/5th scaled wind tunnel regarding its potentials and capabilities in aerodynamic study. The flow quality in the test section was evaluated. The experiments were performed included measurements of airspeed stability, tunnel-wall boundary layer profile and horizontal buoyancy. READ MORE
