Assessing the Impact of Mission Requirements, Vehicle Attributes, Technologies and Uncertainty in Rotorcraft System Design
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2002-06)
This research provides a probabilistic design environment for the propagation of design uncertainty to the system level to assist in making more educated decisions in the early stages of design. This design uncertainty is ...
An Application of Response Surface Methodology to the Design of Tipjet Driven Stopped Rotor/Wing Concepts
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 1995-09)
The possibility of a new aircraft that is capable of solving the increasing demand of inter-city transportation has attracted the attention of the aerospace industry for quite some time. Under the High Speed Rotorcraft ...
System Synthesis in Preliminary Aircraft Design Using Statistical Methods
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 1996-09)
This paper documents an approach to conceptual and early preliminary aircraft design in which system synthesis is achieved using statistical methods, specifically Design of Experiments (DOE) and Response Surface Methodology ...
An Assessment of Reaction Driven Stopped Rotor/Wing Using Circulation Control in Forward Flight
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 1996-10)
The desire of achieving faster cruise speed for rotorcraft vehicles has been around since the inception of the helicopter. Many unconventional concepts have been considered and researched such as the advanced tilt rotor ...
