  • Effect of wingtip morphing on the roll mode of a flexible aircraft 
    Dussart, Gaétan X.; Yusuf, Sezsy Y.; Lone, Mohammad M. (AIAA, 2018-01-13)
    It is well known that increasing wing span leads to improved aerodynamic performances. To comply with airport infrastructure limits, ground folding wingtips are implemented as a solution for wing span extension. To further ...
  • Flexible high aspect ratio wing: Low cost experimental model and computational framework 
    Pontillo, Alessandro; Hayes, David; Dussart, Gaétan X.; Lopez Matos, Guillermo E.; Carrizales, Martin A.; Yusuf, Sezsy Y.; Lone, Mohammad M. (AIAA, 2018-01-13)
    Aircraft concepts of tomorrow, such as high aspect ratio wing aircraft, are far more integrated between technical disciplines and thus require multidisciplinary design approaches. Design tools able to predict associated ...
  • In-flight folding wingtip system: inspiration from the XB-70 Valkyrie 
    Dussart, Gaétan X.; Lone, Mudassir M.; O’Rourke, Ciaran; Wilson, Thomas (AIAA, 2019-01-06)
    Wingtip folding can be used to extend aircraft wingspan, allowing designers to take advantage of reduced induced drag whilst respecting ground operational limitations. Such devices can also be used in-flight for a variety ...
  • Method to assess lateral handling qualities of aircraft with wingtip morphing 
    Dussart, Gaétan X.; Yusuf, Sezsy Y.; Portapas, Vilius; Lopez Matos, Guillermo E.; Lone, Mohammad M. (2018-01-13)
    The impact of in- ight folding wingtip on roll characteristics of aircraft has been studied in the past. In this study, a handling qualities assessment carried out to de-risk further development of such a device. A ...
  • Pilot-in-the-loop flight simulation of flexible aircraft in Matlab / Simulink: Implementation and coding peculiarities 
    Lopez Matos, Guillermo E.; Portapas, Vilius; Dussart, Gaétan X.; Lone, Mohammad M.; Coetzee, Etienne (AIAA, 2018-01-13)
    Integration of flight dynamic models, developed in the MATLAB R ⃝ /Simulink R ⃝ environment, with an engineering flight simulation platform allows rapid pilot-in-the-loop evaluation of new aircraft concepts at early stages ...
