Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLow Reynolds Number Wing Design for Unmanned Aerial Vehicle: A Case StudyMohammed El-Adawy, Alhassan H. Farid, Mohamed Ahmed Hassan et al.With the widespread utilization of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) in many fields, it is essential to identify the parameters governing their design process. By taking the wing as a showcase, this study intends to guide through the design process of the wing, elaborate on some important definitions, and show how different parts of an aircraft affect each other. The current … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 6 Dec 2022 · 7,367 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTesting Composite Valve Covers for Reciprocating Engine ApplicationsPeng Hao Wang, Natalie ZimmermannThe use of composites within the aeronautical field is not limited to airframe applications and includes powerplant components in reciprocating engines. To add to the research body in this area, the presented work aimed to evaluate the performance of novel carbon fiber valve covers installed on an aircraft reciprocating engine. Specifically, the comparative performance between novel composite-based valve covers and … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 3 · 12 Aug 2022 · 5,842 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRomanian Engineering "On the Wings of the Wind"Relly Victoria Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Antonio Apicella, Florian Ion Tiberiu PetrescuThe presented study proposes a commemoration of the main artisans of the Romanian and world aviation, from its beginnings to the day. Very briefly are brought to the forefront, the main inventors of flying machines and equipment that have lived here in the Romanian territory and have contributed substantially to the development of any type of flight. We will talk … …Journal of Aircraft and Spacecraft Technology, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 18 Jan 2018 · 9,414 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Modern FlightRelly Victoria Petrescu, Florian Ion Tiberiu Petrescu, Antonio Apicella et al.A modern flight involves both a great flight quality and high safety throughout. You can’t speak of a quality of flight today unless it provides increased comfort to all passengers in full safety and relaxation. Regardless of the aircraft design type, a minimum level of comfort is required in the passenger cabin so that they feel safe, comfortable, quiet, plus … …Journal of Aircraft and Spacecraft Technology, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 19 Oct 2017 · 8,324 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAbout HelicoptersRelly Victoria Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Bilal Akash et al.A helicopter is a type of rotorcraft in which lift and thrust are supplied by one or more engine-driven rotors. In contrast with fixed-wing aircraft, this allows the helicopter to take off and land vertically, to hover and to fly forwards, backward and laterally. These attributes allow helicopters to be used in congested or isolated areas where fixed-wing aircraft would … …Journal of Aircraft and Spacecraft Technology, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 9 Sep 2017 · 15,681 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAbout Northrop GrummanRelly Victoria Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Bilal Akash et al.The Northrop Grumman (formerly Ryan Aeronautical) RQ-4 Global Hawk (known as Tier II+ during development) is an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) used by the United States Air Force and Navy and the German Air Force as a surveillance aircraft. The Northrop Grumman B-2 Spirit (also known as the Stealth Bomber) is an American strategic bomber, featuring low observable stealth technology … …Journal of Aircraft and Spacecraft Technology, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 19 Aug 2017 · 9,176 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractConceptual Design, Analysis and Construction of a Fixed-Wing Unmanned Arial Vehicle for Oil and Gas Pipeline SurveillanceAliyu Bhar Kisabo, Charles Attah Osheku, Sholiyi Olusegun SamuelOil and Gas Pipelines consists of pipes, compressors and pumps. These are frequently located in environments that are difficult to monitor and secure (e.g., creeks and remote areas). Attacks or damage to such installations can lead to enormous ecological impact and loss of revenue. Developing and implementing monitoring systems that can continuously assess the state and condition of oil and … …Journal of Aircraft and Spacecraft Technology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 1 Jun 2017 · 10,538 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModern Propulsions for Aerospace-Part IIRelly Victoria Virgil Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Bilal Akash et al.Speaking about a new engine ionic means to speak about a new aircraft. The paper presents in a short time the actual engines ion chambers (called the ion thrusters) and other new ionic motors proposed by the authors. The engine (ionic propulsion unit of ions, that accelerates the positive ions through a potential difference) is approximately ten times more efficient … …Journal of Aircraft and Spacecraft Technology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 25 Apr 2017 · 8,122 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Use of Eye Tracking in Assessing Visual AttentionAyiei AyieiIn aviation, procedural errors persist despite pilots having the correct knowledge and ability to perform particular flight tasks. These errors can be attributed to diagnostic errors, inaccurate situational assessment and poor hazard awareness. Eye tracking has emerged as a technology that can be used to monitor pilot performance and provide insights into attentional distribution and the underlying decisional processes. The … …Journal of Aircraft and Spacecraft Technology, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 4 Sep 2020 · 7,429 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Brief Introduction to the Bird Strike Numerical SimulationAniello Riccio, Roberta Cristiano, Salvatore SaputoBird impacts can be extremely critical events for the air transport safety. Since aircraft structures have become more and more complex components, the numerical prediction of the damage onset and evolution induced by a bird impact has become a very challenging task. The aim of this work is to provide a brief overview of the numerical techniques adopted for the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 4 Nov 2016 · 8,673 accessesView PDFCite
