La géométrie Blended-Wing-Body (BWB)

La géométrie Blended-Wing-Body (BWB)  Les passagers aériens sont particulièrement habitués à voir et à voyager dans des avions à géométrie conventionnelle de type ailes-fuselage, ou TAW pour Tube-And-Wings en anglais. Néanmoins des études menées par Boeing à la fin des...

Propulsion: Engine Thrust and Specific Fuel Consumption Estimation

Numerical Database and Flight Management System The FMS is the key with which to responds to most of the airlines’ economic worries in terms of fuel and time costs (Creedon, 1983). In 1982, Boeing began to install FMSs on B-...

Fault-Tolerant systems: General overview

In the context of overall flight computer structure environments, three major types of faulttolerant systems can be designed depending on the type of occurred faults. When faults occur in the hardware or software of the flight computer, then a Fault-Tolerant...

Uncertainty analysis of test data at the nrc 1.5 meter trisonic wind tunnel

Accurate prediction of aircraft aerodynamic performance is critical to manufacturers like Bombardier Aerospace for design and development activities. Even though advances in computing power, modeling approaches, and computational fluid dynamic algorithms can now provide performance estimates, wind tunnel experimental data...

Recyclage en aéronautique

Cette première section offre tout d’abord un aperçu de l’industrie de recyclage. Elle aborde le recyclage dans trois secteurs d’industrie : l’industrie d’automobile, l’industrie d’emballages et l’industrie aéronautique. Par la suite les différentes méthodes de traitements en fin de vie...

Morphing Wing Concept in the Aviation Domain

The word "Morphing" comes from the verb "to morph", which refers to a continuous shape of a body, changed under its actuation system influence. In the aeronautical domain, "morphing" is defined as "a set of technologies that increase a vehicle's...

Selected Avionic Systems for the Integrated Architecture

As briefly mentioned in the previous chapter, this Master’s research project has been developed within the pale of collaborative research and development project AVIO-505. Therefore, its main objective is given by the definition of the AVIO-505 project, which aims at...

Turbine Housing and Shroud Segment Geometry and Physic Mechanism  Principal HPT Components The static structure components in this research ,They comprise the turbine housing (TH) and the shroud segment (SS) above the blade, which is a rotating structure component. The...

Fuel Burn Reduction Efforts Before Airborne

In our day to day lives, there are many different things that are taken for granted. This is the case of exotic fruits, fish, meat, exclusive drinks in the supermarket, flowers. In addition, traveling is made fast for various purposes,...

Ni-cd and Li-Ion general characteristics

The first objective of this project was to set up a bench test in order to recreate the complete flight conditions the battery would encounter in an aircraft. The second objective is the analysis of the performance of a nickel-cadmium...
