In the present study, unsteady calculations have been performed to simulate flows around a UH-60A full configuration including main rotor, fuselage, and tail rotor. A flow solver developed for helicopter aerodynamic analysis was used for the simulation of the complete helicopter in high-speed and low-speed forward flight. Unsteady vibratory loads on the main rotor blades were compared with flight test and other calculated data for the assessment of the present flow solver. Aerodynamic interaction of the three components of the helicopter was investigated by comparing with the results of main-rotor-alone, main rotor and fuselage, and tail-rotor-alone configurations. It was found that the existence of the fuselage has an effect on the normal force distribution of the main rotor by varying downwash distribution on the rotor disc, and tip vortices trailed from the main rotor strongly interact with the tail-rotor.

A flight simulator is a device that allows pilots attain proficiency of various situations and a sense of flight, and as interest in scientific training increases in modern aviation, aviation training organization develop and operate simulators. Therefore, in this study, the process of developing a motion-based helicopter simulation Training Device using a commercial program. Citing previous studies, the specificity of helicopter flight education and the positive effect of motion simulators were confirmed. In addition, the design and program of the motion device were studied in the process of checking the configuration and current regulations of flight simulation training devices and developing a helicopter motion simulator. A motion program was set based on the system design and structural design of the flight simulator, and data received from the flight simulator was identified to confirm the expected operating shape. Through this study, we intend to create a positive expected effect on pilot training by completing a motion-based helicopter simulator.

In this study, structural vibration analyses of a smart unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) have been conducted considering dynamic hub-loads of tilt rotor. Practical computational structural dynamics technique based on the finite element method is applied using MSC/NASTRAN. The present UAV(TR-S5-04) finite element model is constructed as a full three-dimensional configuration with different fuel conditions and tilting angles for helicopter, transient and airplane flight modes. In addition, the 3-dimensional supporting equipment structures of electronic devices are considered for vibration analysis. As the results of this study, transient structural displacements and accelerations are presented in detail. Moreover, vibration characteristics of structural parts and installed equipments are investigated for different fuel conditions and tilting angles.
