Development of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) with vertical take-off and landing systems and rotary motors
Developed a computer take-off model for the UAV
Calculated the kinematics of the motors
Developed a control system
Determined the influence of the aircraft shape, weight distribution, crosswinds, engine thrust characteristics and other parameters on takeoff
Calculated aerodynamic characteristics of UAV (capable of vertical take-off and landing) during transient conditions
Developed a three-dimensional numerical model of the UAV capable of vertical take-off and landing/short take-off and landing
Researched the aircraft aerodynamics during transient conditions — transition from vertical take-off to horizontal flight
Validated the computational methods used to process experimental data pertaining to the influence the airflow from the tractor propeller on the aircraft wing
Measured the aerodynamic characteristics of the UAV under conditions of varying flight control deflections, varying flight and propeller speeds
Using the measured aerodynamic characteristics, designed a UAV control system for transient conditions, which is currently is the development stage
