Today, we see a renewed interest in aircraft with multiple propellers due to an increasing demand for vehicles which fly short distances at low altitudes, be it flying taxis, delivery drones or small passenger aircrafts. To support conceptual design of vehicles, one of the major needs is a fast and accurate method for estimating wing aerodynamic characteristics in the presence of multiple propellers. For the method to be effective, it must be easy to use, have rapid turnaround time and should be able to capture major wing–propeller inter- action effects with sufficient accuracy. This research is primarily motivated by the need to assess the effectiveness of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) for simulating aerodynamic characteristics of wings with multiple propellers. Then only can we can take full advantage of the capabilities of the CFD methods and support design of emerging propeller driven air vehicles with an appropriate level of confidence. This research aims to compare high level methods with increasingly complex geometries and realistic models of physics like Reynolds Averaged Navier Stokes (RANS) and low level methods that rely on simplified geometry and simplified physics models like Vortex Lattice Methods (VLM). We will analyse multiple configurations and validate them against experi- mental data and thus assessing the effectiveness of the CFD models. This research investigates two configurations, 1) WIPP configuration 2) APROPOS config- uration, for which experimental data is available. The results of the simulations are used to assess the effectiveness of the two CFD methods used in this research.

Full textAircraft developers like other development and manufacturing companies, are experiencing increasing complexity in their products and growing competition in the global market. One way to confront the challenges is to make the development process more efficient and to shorten time to market for new products/variants by using design and development methods based on models. Model Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) is introduced to, in a structured way, support engineers with aids and rules in order to engineer systems in a new way.
In this thesis, model based strategies for aircraft and avionics development are studied. A background to avionics architectures and in particular Integrated Modular Avionics is described. The integrating discipline Systems Engineering, MBSE and applicable standards are also described. A survey on available and emerging modeling techniques and tools, such as Hosted Simulation, is presented and Modeling Domains are defined in order to analyze the engineering environment with all its vital parts to support an MBSE approach.
Time and money may be saved by using modeling techniques that enable understanding of the engineering problem, state-of-the-art analysis and team communication, with preserved or increased quality and sense of control. Dynamic simulation is an activity increasingly used in aerospace, for several reasons; to prove the product concept, to validate stated requirements, and to verify the final implementation. Simulation is also used for end-user training, with specialized training simulators, but with the same underlying models. As models grow in complexity, and the set of simulation platforms is expanded, new needs for specification, model building and configuration support arise, which requires a modeling framework to be efficient.

Full textThis thesis is about aircraft emergency evacuation and its principal objective is to establish a computational model able to simulate realistically it. This will contribute to the certification process of new aircraft emergency evacuation layouts and egress procedures for large capacity airliners. This thesis is composed of two main parts. In the first one, the main problem issues are identified, a state of the art in emergency evacuation from aircraft is realized and human behaviours during such an event are described. In the second part of this work, the elements of the emergency evacuation model are identified. After analysing existing models and different models of dynamic cellular systems, the conceptual model of this simulator is proposed. Its framework has been designed using UML and the routines are written in Java. Finally future research directions are given

The federal aviation administration predicts ongoing growth in the aviation industry over the following 20 years. Therefore, the airports will be more crowded, and a higher number of operations will occur at those facilities. An accurate prediction of airports' capacities can help the authorities to improve the airports appropriately. Due to significant reductions in in-trail aircraft separations, runway occupancy times will become more significant in airport arrival procedures. In this study, a landing event database was developed to represent the accurate distributions of runway occupancy times. Also, it is essential to have computer applications capable of replicating runway occupancy time distributions. In this dissertation, a novel approach was developed to replicate aircraft runway occupancy times. A massive amount of airport surface radar data was utilized to create all the mentioned computer applications. The results of the final products were validated against real data. Real-world case scenarios were discussed as part of this study to showcase the strengths of the final developed product in solving challenging problems related to airport capacity. Finally, extreme cases of motivated landing behavior from airline pilots were studied, and multiple methodologies were introduced to replicate pilot motivational behavior while landing on runway.

Full textDevelopment of modern aircraft has become more and more expensive and time consuming. In order to minimize the development cost, an improvement of the conceptual design phase is needed. The desired goal of the project is to enhance the functionality of an in house produced framework conducted at the department of machine design, consisting of parametric models representing a large variety of aircraft concepts.
The first part of the work consists of the construction of geometric aircraft control surfaces such as flaps, aileron, rudder and elevator parametrically in CATIA V5.
The second part of the work involves designing and simulating an Inverse dynamic model in Dymola software.
An Excel interface has been developed between CATIA and Dymola. Parameters can be varied in the interface as per user specification; these values are sent to CATIA or Dymola and vice versa. The constructed concept model of control surfaces has been tested for different aircraft shapes and layout. The simulation has been done in Dymola for the control surfaces.

Full textAdvanced computer simulations will play a more and more important role in future aircraft development and aeronautic research. Hardware-in-the-loop simulations enable examination of single components without the need of a full-scale model of the system. This project investigates the possibility of conducting hardware-in-the-loop simulations using a hydraulic test rig utilizing modern computer equipment. Controllers and models have been built in Simulink and Hopsan. Most hydraulic and mechanical components used in Hopsan have also been translated from Fortran to C and compiled into shared libraries (.dll). This provides an easy way of importing Hopsan models in LabVIEW, which is used to control the test rig. The results have been compared between Hopsan and LabVIEW, and no major differences in the results could be found. Importing Hopsan components to LabVIEW can potentially enable powerful features not available in Hopsan, such as hardware-in-the-loop simulations, multi-core processing and advanced plotting tools. It does however require fast computer systems to achieve real-time speed. The results of this project can provide interesting starting points in the development of the next generation of Hopsan.

Full textWith the decline in military budgets worldwide, the need for ever more effective training is becoming apparent. The size of the armed forces is being reduced, so the remaining members have to be trained to be more effective and efficient in doing their jobs. To improve effectiveness and efficiency of performance, military training needs will be increased. Our largest training costs will be in pilot training because of the high cost of keeping aircraft in the air. When we look at the cost of training a pilot to operate in a multiplayer scenario against a large number of unfriendly aircraft and a large number of ground threats, the cost of training is tremendous. It requires a large number of personnel, aircraft and ground equipment to train a limited number of pilots. Our current Red Flag exercises can require as many as 75 aircraft in the air simultaneously plus a large number of ground threats and a large number of support personnel. This can amount to a prohibitive cost to train a limited number of pilots.
