Computational analysis of sweeping jet actuator using dynamic mode decomposition
(2022-12)
A sweeping jet actuator (SJA) is a self-sustaining, periodically oscillating device without involving any moving parts. SJA requires only pressurized fluid at the inlet to transfer momentum via the Coanda effect. As an ...
Investigation of a tilt-wing proof of concept for a high-speed VTOL jet UAV using thrust vectoring for balance
(2022-12)
Success of Special operations forces (SOF) missions depends on a high level of situational awareness within sensitive areas of interest, especially when arriving in volatile, sensitive environments. Oftentimes intelligence, ...
Computational fluid dynamics study for stability analysis of an unmanned aircraft mass simulator with rocket-assisted take-off
(2022-05)
This paper presents the stability analysis of a high speed unmanned aerial system mass simulator fitted with a rocket-assisted take-off (RATO) system. Flight stability characteristics from rocket ignition to rocket burnout ...
