A radio-controlled tailless model helicopter will be used later this year to test a "flapping blades" propulsion concept that avoids generating the torque associated with conventional rotors. In a ...
Rotating machinery in aerospace and energy sectors is subject to complex aeroelastic interactions that give rise to periodic vibratory loads, acoustic emission and fatigue damage. Active control ...
The number of blades a helicopter has is very important because it speaks to what the helicopter was designed to do. For example, adding more blades can significantly improve a helicopter's ...
