  • Autogyro C-30 Fuselage Finite Element Model Analysis
    BACHELOR'S THESIS Degree in Aerospace Engineering Autogyro C-30 Fuselage Finite Element Model Analysis Enrique Labiano Laserna Supervisor Jos´e D´ıaz Alvarez´ February 2019 Abstract The main objective of this paper is to design and analyze the autogyro C-30 fuse- lage structure. The autogyro, considered as a hybrid between an airplane and a helicopter, is one the most important milestone in aircraft aviation. It was invented by Juan De la Cierva and became the first rotary wing aircraft that achieved suc- cess. In fact, this kind of rotorcraft will have a lot of influence on how the helicopter operates nowadays. The project will be divided into several parts. Firstly, all the information and draw- ings of the fuselage structure will be gathered and analyzed. After that, the fuselage structure will be modeled in a finite element software, called Abaqus. Secondly, all parts that composed the autogyro will be determined and their weights will be esti- mated taking into account the MTOW of the aircraft. According to the regulations established in the British Civil Airworthiness Requirements (BCAR), loads will be introduced in the model simulating a symmetric pull-up maneuver. The scope of the study will involve a stress analysis and finally, a modal analysis in order to determine the natural frequencies of the structure. Finally, a socio-economic impact of designing an autogyro will be presented together with a rough budget of manufacturing the fuselage structure of the autogyro C-30. Keywords: Autogyro C-30, fuselage structure, FEM analysis, modal analysis iii Acknowledgements First of all, I would like to thank my parents and my brothers who have helped me from the beginning.

  • The Evolution of the British Rotorcraft Industry 1842-2012
    Journal of Aeronautical History Paper No. 2012/07 THE EVOLUTION OF THE BRITISH ROTORCRAFT INDUSTRY 1842-2012 Eur Ing David Gibbings C Eng., FRAeS Based on a paper originally presented to the European Rotorcraft Forum in Hamburg, September 2009. ABSTRACT This paper relates the way in which rotorcraft developed in Britain, leading to the growth of an effective design and manufacturing industry. The narrative is divided into five sections, each of which represents defining phases in UK based activity leading towards the development of the modern helicopter: 1. The Pre-Flight Period (1842-1903) This section covers British activity during the period when the objective was simply to demonstrate powered flight by any means, and where rotors might be considered to be a way of achieving this. 2. The Early Helicopter Period (1903-1926). Early attempts to build helicopters, including the work of Louise Brennan, which achieved limited success with a rotor driven by a propellers mounted on the blade tips. 3. The Pre-War Years (1926-1939) This section gives emphasis to development of the gyroplane and in particular the work of Juan de la Cierva, with his UK-based company to develop his 'Autogiro', from which the understanding of rotor dynamics and control was established, and which was to lead to the realisation of the helicopter by others. Although UK rotary wing development was driven by the gyroplane, the work carried out by the Weir Company, which was to lead to the first successful British helicopter is discussed. 4. The War Years. (1939-1945) Rotary wing activities in the UK were very limited during World War 2, restricted to the work carried out by Raoul Hafner with the Rotachute/ Rotabuggy programme and the use of autogiros for the calibration of radar.

  • Envisioning the Aeroplane: Comparing the Spectrum Of
    ENVISIONING THE AEROPLANE: COMPARING THE SPECTRUM OF RESPONSES IN THE AMERICAN AND BRITISH ARMIES TO A TECHNOLOGY WITHOUT PRECEDENT, 1903-1939 A Dissertation by LORI ANN HENNING Submitted to the Office of the Graduate and Professional Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Chair of Committee, Jonathan Coopersmith Committee Members, Brian Linn Chester Dunning Adam Seipp Peter Hugill Head of Department, David Vaught May 2015 Major Subject: History Copyright 2015 Lori Ann Henning ABSTRACT This work examines the unique threat and opportunity posed by aviation to the horse cavalry in the 1900s through the 1930s and how cavalrymen responded. During that period, the American and British cavalries encountered advancing technologies that threatened to change war and directly alter cavalry’s armament, tactics, and overall role. With airplanes as with bicycles and other new technologies, cavalry officers were cautious. Rather than uncritically embracing or rejecting new technologies completely, cavalrymen tested them before coming to conclusions. Cavalrymen cautiously examined the capabilities of airplanes, developed applications and doctrine for joint operations, and in the United States, even tried to develop their own specially designed aircraft. Airplanes promised to relieve the cavalry of low-priority missions, not threaten its existence. Instead of replacing the cavalry in the 1910s-1930s, airplanes worked cooperatively with cavalry in reconnaissance, security, communication, protection, and pursuit, a cooperation tested in maneuvers and officially blessed in both British and American doctrine. Just as cavalrymen became dependent on the close working relationship with airplanes in the 1920s-30s, this relationship altered drastically as aviation priorities and doctrine shifted to independent strategic bombardment from tactical support of ground troops.

  • Rotodyne-2-Rtf-Mod.Pdf
    1 The Fairey Rotodyne: An Idea Whose Time Has Come – Again? Dr. Bruce H. Charnov BASED ON From Autogiro to Gyroplane: The Amazing Survival of an Aviation Technology Published by Praeger Publishers, July 2003 I It was first flown on November 6, 1957 at the Fairey facility at White Waltham with Chief Helicopter Test Pilot Squadron Leader W. Ron Gellatly at the helm along with Assistant Chief Helicopter Test Pilot Lt. Cmdr. John G. P. Morton as Second Pilot. In the Rotodyne1 “Y” form (XE521), it carried a crew of two and forty passengers, and, receiving lift from fixed wings of 46 feet 6 inches, was propelled forward by two wing-mounted 3,000 shaft hp Napier Eland NEL3 turboprop engines. But this was no ordinary aircraft – its 58 foot 8 inch fuselage could lift off and cruise as a helicopter with four tip- mounted pressure jets powering rotors that provided a disk 90 feet in diameter. The tip jets of the stainless steel rotors were powered by the same Eland engines which were coupled with compressors to force air into the tip-rotor pressure jets. Fuel was mixed with the compressed air and then ignited to create thrust capable of turning the rotor. But once aloft, the Fairy Rotodyne could disengage its rotor, which would then unload and autorotate to provide approximately 65% of the aircraft’s lift. The first transition from vertical to horizontal flight was on April 10, 1958. This, then, was the realization of a quest to merge the benefits of the autogiro, helicopter and airplane2 – and, viewing the surviving film of its flight, it was a stunning achievement! That film, after Westland Aircraft LTD (having acquired Fairey Aviation on May 2, 1960) cancelled the Rotodyne project with the ending of official funding on February 26, 1962, and a few surviving components in the British Rotorcraft Museum in Weston-super-Mare (sometimes on loan to the Museum of Army Flying) are all that remains of this magnificent achievement.

  • THE PHILADELPHIA REGION: the Cradle of Rotary-Wing Aviation in the US
    Frank Piasecki flying the PV-2, which he designed while a student at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia. THE PHILADELPHIA REGION: The Cradle of Rotary-Wing Aviation in the US By Robert Beggs he City of Philadelphia, located in the beautiful Delaware Valley of Pennsylvania, is most notable for its rich history, Tits lawyers, its cheesesteaks and more recently its Super Bowl-winning professional football team. In 2019, Philadelphia will again be center stage as it hosts the Vertical Flight Society’s Forum 75! Celebrating the Society’s Diamond Anniversary in Philadelphia is quite fitting and a homecoming of sorts for our Society. Philadelphia is undeniably the cradle of rotary-wing aviation development in the US and was the location of the inaugural meeting of rotary-wing aviation pioneers on April 3, 1945, at the Engineers Club of Philadelphia on Spruce Street, just a few blocks from where Forum 75 will be held. The aviation history of Philadelphia could fill volumes, but this summary will help you to appreciate how it all began and why we still say there are more “rotorheads” in Philadelphia than Harold Pitcairn’s Cierva C.8W Autogiro made the first anyplace else in the world. rotary-wing flight in America at Bryn Athyn in 1928. Let’s take a trip back to the 1920s, to a small town just north on the Pitcairn property. The next year, Pitcairn acquired rights of Philadelphia named Bryn Athyn. The town was home to the to Cierva’s patents and formed the Pitcairn-Cierva Autogiro wealthy and influential Pitcairn family.Harold Pitcairn was an Company of America.

  • A History of Helicopter Flight
    A History of Helicopter Flight J. Gordon Leishman Professor of Aerospace Engineering, University of Maryland, College Park. "The idea of a vehicle that could lift itself vertically from the ground and hover motionless in the air was probably born at the same time that man first dreamed of flying."

C ompounds, Tilt-Wings and Tilt-Rotors R eferences Text on all pages © J. G. Leishman 2000, with extracts from the author's book "Principles of Helicopter Aerodynamics" © Cambridge University Press 2000. Overview During the past sixty years since their first successful flights, helicopters have matured from unstable, vibrating contraptions that could barely lift the pilot off the ground, into sophisticated machines of extraordinary flying capability. They are able to hover, fly forward, backward and sideward, and perform other desirable maneuvers. Igor Sikorsky lived long enough to have the satisfaction of seeing his vision of a flying machine "that could lift itself vertically from the ground and hover motionless in the air" come true in many more ways than he could have initially imagined. At the beginning of the new Millennium, there were in excess of 40,000 helicopters flying worldwide. Its civilian roles encompass air ambulance, sea and mountain rescue, crop dusting, fire fighting, police surveillance, corporate services, and oil-rig servicing.
