Unsteady Aerodynamics and Trailing-edge Vortex Sheet of An Airfoil

Unsteady flow models of wings and airfoils have been studied to understand the aerodynamic performance of natural flyers and provide improved maneuverability for micro aerial vehicles (MAVs). Vortex methods have been extensively applied to reduce the dimensionality of these aerodynamic models, based on the proper estimation of the distribution and evolution of the vortices in the wake. In such ...

Evolutionary Coordination System for Fixed-Wing Communications Unmanned Aerial Vehicles

This document provides supplementary online material for the paper titled “Evolutionary coordination system for fixed-wing communications unmanned aerial vehicles” recently submitted to TAROS 2014. It mainly focuses on critical system components, namely the aerial vehicles kinematics model, link budget management and also addresses the issue of time synchronisation and algorithmic flow.
