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.

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.

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.

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 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.

The flutter characteristics of all movable tail wing with honeycomb sandwich structure have been studied in this study. The present wing model has a airfoil cross section and the linear variation of spanwise thickness. Structural vibration analysis is performed based on the finite element method using sandwich and beam elements. Unsteady aerodynamic technique used on the doublet lattice method has been effectively used to conduct the frequency-domain flutter analyses. The parametric flutter studies have been performed for various structural design parameters. Computational results on flutter stability due to the variation of structural parameters are presented and its related characteristics are investigated through the comparison of results.

In this report Smart UAV structural analysis of the aft fuselage is presented. Aft fuselage needs to have enough strength and stiffness considering loads of the Vertical and Horizontal Stabilizer together. It has a big hole for the purpose of engine exhaust duct on its side body. In addition, much attention is needed in high temperature region due to material strength deterioration.
