Open ports are typically used by server software to serve remote clients, and the usage
historically leads to remote exploitation due to insufficient protection. Smartphone operating …

THE use of trailing-edge flaps for primary flight control started as early as 1922 when
Pescara incorporated plain flaps for blade pitch control. 1 The trailing-edge flap provides …

The dynamics of rotary wing systems are complex and typically feature highly nonlinear and
often unsteady aerodynamics, as well as aeroelastic influences. In ongoing efforts to reduce …

In order to improve the aerodynamic characteristics of rotor, a new active flow control
strategy by combining a synthetic jet actuator and a variable droop leading-edge or a trailing …

Reducing the rotor dynamic load is an important issue to improve the performance and
reliability of a helicopter. The control mechanism of the actively controlled flap (ACF) on the …

When a rotorcraft has N blades, N/rev vibration becomes large as the cruise speed
increases. This article numerically examines the effect of Center-of-Gravity (CG) offset on …

An aeroelastic analysis of rotor blades with trailing edge flaps was conducted using large
deflection-type beam theory for forward flight conditions with a focus on reducing vibration …

An electrically controlled rotor (ECR), also known as a swashplateless rotor, eliminates the
swashplate system to implement the primary control via the trailing-edge flaps (TEFs), which …

A conventional rotor control system restricted at 1/rev frequency component is unable to vary
the hub vibratory loads and the aeroacoustic noise, which exist in high frequency …

A comprehensive aeroelastic analytical model of helicopter rotors with trailing-edge flaps for
primary and vibration controls has been developed. The derivation of system equations is …
