j2 Project Example – Hoverwing Stability Analysis
Investigations were carried out using dynamic modelling techniques. This method builds a data model of the aircraft representing, as accurately as possible, both the aerodynamic characteristics and the structural characteristics to enable “simulations” to be performed. These simulations can be … Continue reading
