Common aspects and differences in the behaviour of classical configuration versus canard configuration aircraft in the presence of vertical gusts, assuming the hypothesis of an elastic fuselage
Journal Title: INCAS BULLETIN - Year 2011, Vol 3, Issue 2
Abstract
The paper analyzes, in parallel, common aspects and differences in the behavior of classical configuration versus canard configuration aircraft in the presence of vertical gusts, assuming the hypothesis of an elastic fuselage. The effects of the main constructional dimensions of the horizontal empennage on lift cancelling and horizontal empennage control are being analyzed.

Optimizing ideal ion propulsion systems depending on the nature of the propellant
From all accounts the ion thrusters are characterized by the fact that they produce a very high exhaust velocity and specific impulse, sometimes too high for many missions. The exhaust velocity of the ionized particles i...
Parachute systems for the atmospheric reentry of launcher upper stages
Parachute systems can be used to control the reentry trajectory of launcher upper stages, in order to lower the risks to the population or facilitate the retrieval of the stage. Several types of parachutes deployed at su...
A two-dimensional linear elasticity problem for anisotropic materials, solved with a parallelization code
The present paper introduces a numerical approach of static linear elasticity equations for anisotropic materials. The domain and boundary conditions are simple, to enhance an easy implementation of the finite difference...
Single European Sky – the transformation of the aviation industry based on the dynamic capabilities
Each year the demand of aviation services is increasing but the European airspace is still fragmented according to national borders. Delays of implementing Single European Sky are increasingly high. Consequently, each ye...
Unexpected Properties of the Propagations Generated by Some Time Harmonic Perturbations in a 2D Infinitely Long Straight Duct Satisfying Different Types of Boundary Conditions
In this paper the propagation, generated by some explicit permanent time harmonic perturbations are presented, in a 2D straight duct, carrying a constant gas flow. The amplitude of the perturbations is not that given by...
