According to the development of loading equipments, it is usual to change or replace the existing stores. It has been known that pylon-mounted under stores strongly affect aircraft dynamics characteristics due to the change of aerodynamics. To predict the aerodynamics and aero-elasticity is essentially requested with considering the configuration and shape of external stores during the development of aircraft and/or external stores. In this paper, computational fluid dynamics and computational structure dynamics interaction methodology are applied for prediction of aerodynamic characteristics for F-5 aircraft's horizontal tail with various shape of external stores. FLUENT and ABAQUS were used to calculate fluid and structural dynamics. Code-bridge was made base on the globally supported radial basis function to execute interpolation and mapping. As a result, even though the aeroelasticity of the horizontal tail slightly changes according to the shape of external store, the flutter was not occurred at the considered flight conditions in this study.

항공기의 비행 안정성을 판별하기 위해서는 정적(static)안정성과 동적(dynamic)안정성을 모두 고려해야 한다. 본 연구는 EDISON_CFD의 KFLOW_EDISON_2D3DOF, 2D_Com_P해석자를 이용해 2차원익형의 정적(static)계수와 동적(dynamic)계수를 구해 항공기 전체형상의 정적 안정성 및 동적 안정성을 분석하였다. 그 중 2015년도 인간 동력 항공기대회 건국대학교 참가 기체를 예시로 연구를 진행하였다. 주익 익형 SG6043과 미익 익형 NACA0012을 EDISON_CFD를 이용하여 각 익형의 모멘트계수를 구하고 그 결과값을 이용하여 기체의 무게중심에 대한 각 익형의 감쇠계수를 계산하였다. 그리고 주익과 미익의 면적비율과 코드길이의 비율을 고려해 전체 항공기형상의 안정성과 비행 형태를 분석하였다.

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) have been used for various purposes in multiple fields, such as observation, communication relaying, and information acquisition. Nowadays, UAVs must have high performance in order to acquire more precise information in larger amounts than is now possible while performing for long periods. At present, domestically, a high-altitude long-endurance UAV (HALE UAV) for long-term flight in the stratosphere has been developed in order to replace some functions of the satellite. In this study, as a part of structural soundness evaluation of the aircraft structure developed for the HALE UAV, the structural soundness of the fasteners of the fuselage and tail is evaluated by calculating the margin of safety(M.S). The result confirms the validity of the design of the fasteners in the aircraft structure of the UAV.

This paper presents a method to improve lateral stability of a four-seat canard aircraft, Velocity-173. Longitudinal stability of Velocity-173 is rather good, but lateral stability is relatively poor. A small panel which increases the area of vertical tail is designed and manufactured. In a design process, AAA(Advanced Aircraft Analysis) is used to predict the change in stability. Flight test is performed to validate the effect of a small panel attached under the vertical panel. Maximum likelihood estimation method is used to extract lateral controllability / stability derivatives from flight test data. This work validates the effect of a small panel attached under the vertical tail.

인간동력 항공기 TORUK MAKTO I에 대하여 양력선이론 및 XFOIL을 사용하여 도출한 공력계수 및 미계수 값과 CATIA를 사용한 관성모멘트 추정 값을 사용하여 지면효과 및 주익과 무게중심 사이의 수직거리 변화가 인간동력 항공기의 세로 정안정성에 미치는 영향과 수평미익(스테빌레이터) 변위각제어에 따른 세로 동안정성 해석 연구를 수행하였다. 연구결과 지면효과가 정적여유에 미치는 영향은 미미했다. 공력중심과 무게중심 사이의 수직거리가 세로 정안정성에 미치는 영향은 매우 컸으며, 수직거리 증가는 세로 정안정성을 증가시켰다. 수평미익 변위각 제어에 따른 세로 동안정성 해석 결과 장주기 진동특성과 감쇄특성이 매우 나쁜 것으로 나타났다. 향후 항공기의 동특성을 고려한 세로 동안정성 해석 및 측풍에 의한 가로 및 방향 안정성 해석연구를 수행할 예정이다.

The present study provides structural design and analysis of main wing and horizontal tail of a small scale WIG(Wing in Ground Effect) vehicle which has been developed as a part of the high speed maritime transportation system for the future of Korea. Weight saving as well as structural stability could be achieved by skin-spar with foam sandwich design and with wide application of carbon/epoxy composite material. A commercial FEM code, NASTRAN, was utilized to confirm the structural safety and stability through sequential design modifications to meet the final design goal. In addition, each wing and the fuselage were fastened together by eight insert bolts with high strength to accomodate easy assembling and disassembling as well as to guarantee a service life longer than 20 years.

In this paper, the deterministic optimal design for the tail plane made of composite materials is conducted under the deterministic loading condition and compared with that of the metallic materials. Next, the reliability analysis with five random variables such as loading and material properties of unidirectional prepreg is conducted to examine the probability of failure for the deterministic optimal design results. The MATLAB programing is used for reliability analysis combined with FEA S/W(COMSOL) for structural analysis. The laminated composite is assumed to the equivalent orthotropic material using classical laminated plate theory. The response surface methodology and importance sampling technique are adopted to reduce computational cost with satisfying the accuracy in reliability analysis. As a result, structural weight of composite materials is lighter than that of metals in deterministic optimal design. However, the probability of failure for the deterministic optimal design of the tail plane structures is too high to be neglected. The sensitivity of each variable is also estimated using probabilistic sensitivity analysis to figure out which variables are sensitive to failure. The computational cost is considerably reduced when response surface methodology and importance sampling technique are used. The study of the computationally inexpensive method for reliability-based design optimization will be necessary in further work.

In this study a control surface/actuator fault detection, identification, and accommodation system for aircraft is designed. This fault tolerant control system tries to return aircraft to its stable trim condition in a short time. The control system is designed using neural networks with Extended Back Propagation Algorithm which shows fast convergence. F-4 aircraft with possible stabilator or aileron failure/stuck is simulated with the proposed scheme.

본 연구에서는 CFD 해석 프로그램 EDISON_CFD를 통하여 2차 세계 대전에 소련에서 제작한 복엽기 AN-2의 기체를 기본 모델로 하여 설제 기체에 사용된 TSAGI P-II-14 airfoil를 이용, 기본 모델의 상단 주익과 미익은 고정하고 하단 주 날개의 위치를 변화시켜 공력특성을 분석하였다. 익형의 평행배치의 경우 기본모델에 비해 양력은 적은 크기로 증가하나 항력이 급격히 증가하여 가장 양항비가 낮은 비효율적인 공력 해석 결과를 보였고 복염기 하단 주익의 돌출은 상단 주익의 돌출에 비해 미세한 양력 감소와 항력 증가를 보여 양항비가 감소하는 현상을 보였다. 상, 하단 주익의 상하 간격이 커질수록 양력은 중가, 항력은 감소하며 간격이 작아질수록 양력의 감소와 항력의 증가를 보였다. 본 연구 해석 결과에 따라 순항조건에서의 익형은 상,하 주익간 수직 간격을 넓게 배치하는 것이 가장 효율적으로 볼 수 있다.
