Inhaltsangabe

Aerial vehicles have proved their usefulness in military (combat, deployment of units, patrolling, surveillance, reconnaissance, etc.) and civil areas (transport, search and rescue, fire-fighting, etc.) of applications over a hundred years. Tiltrotor UAVs provide a unique platform that fulfills the needs for ever-changing mission requirements by combining the desired features; hovering like a helicopter and reaching high forward speeds like an airplane. In this book, the conceptual design and aerodynamical model of a realizable small-sized Tiltrotor UAV is constructed, the linearized state-space models are obtained around the trim points for airplane, helicopter and conversion modes, controllers are designed using Linear Quadratic Regulator methods and gain-scheduling is employed to obtain a simulation for the whole flight envelope. Eventually, the ideas for making a real flying model are established according to simulation results. The analysis should help to both theorists and practitioners who are eager to explore the features of the new aircraft types.

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

M.Sc.: Studied Aircraft and Control System Design at Middle East Technical University, TURKIYE. Being fascinated with the work experience in helicopters and control systems, my academic career began both in Aircraft and Control Systems Engineering. This book is the result of my efforts, in trying to unite the theory and the application.
