this research, for the first time presents the flexible flow shop model of scheduling method for considering runway assignment and operations planning together. one of the advantages of the developed model is considering the procedures of air routes in terminal airspace and separation between consecutive aircraft which is very similar to the real world condition. there are different objective f...

This paper presents results for the aeroelastic stability and LCO behavior for a complete aircraft. Comparison are presented between the results predicted by a cantilevered wing model, an untrimmed aircraft model (no gravity or drag) and a trimmed aircraft model. It is seen that the stability behavior is predicted accurately only if the correct trim loads are applied to the wing. The LCO behavi...

This paper presents a model of an airport apron that has been developed in order to determine a dynamical model for aircraft travel time in this area. This model is intended for future systems that will support automated routing and taxiing of aircraft in airport taxiways. The apron model proposed keeps into account the main issues related to the aircraft ground movements, such as aircraft conf...

This paper focuses on strong propeller effects in a full six degree-of-freedom (6DOF) aerodynamic modeling of small UAVs at high angles of attack and high sideslip in maneuvers performed using large control surfaces at large deflections for aircraft with high thrust-to-weight ratios. For such configurations, the flight dynamics can be dominated by relatively large propeller forces and strong pr...

This paper describes the development of a large 35%-scale unmanned aerobatic platform named the UIUC Aero Testbed, which is primarily intended to perform aerodynamics research in the full flight regime. The giant-scale aircraft with a 105-in (2.7-m) wingspan and weight of 37 lb (17 kg) was constructed from a commercially available radio control model aircraft with extensive modifications and up...
