APER AIRPLANES are a source of inspiration for all ages and have been the introduction to
aeronautical engineering for many generations. The fascination of these airplanes has led to …

A multi-fidelity conceptual design tool was developed to assess electrochemically-powered
micro air vehicles (MAVs). The tool utilizes four areas of contributing analyses (CAs) …

This paper compares the wake characteristics and aerodynamic forces for spanwise-
tensioned membranes with free and fixed leading edges (LE). LE vibration was generated …

MICRO aerial vehicles (MAVs) are small aerial vehicles, generally with dimensions in the
order of 1 m. Their small sizes often imply that their flight speeds are also small, roughly in …

Interest in flapping-wing micro air vehicles has grown in recent years. Considerable
research has been invested in the areas of unsteady and low-Reynolds-number …

Micro air vehicles with thin membrane wings have the ability to passively adapt to flight
conditions improving aircraft stability. This work is concerned with the prop-wash induced …

Stockpile volume estimation is an essential process for bulk material management within
industries that rely on stockpiles of different materials as inputs and outputs for the various …
