Modeling of an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) Body for the Needs of Numerical Aerodynamic Investigations, Strength Analysis and Examinations of Free Vibrations

摘要

The paper presents a conceptual design for an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) of a MINI class, where the aircraft engineering is based on the parametrical approach with use of a master model. In addition, the algorithm for development of a virtual object is outlined as well. It is explained how grids are mapped on the surface of the UAV solid as well as applicability of these grids for aerodynamic modeling and strength analysis.
