Abstract Details

2009, Master of Science (MS), Ohio University, Electrical Engineering (Engineering and Technology).
The process of creating a six degree-of-freedom model for an aerospace vehicle requires detailed knowledge of the aerodynamic characteristics. This thesis presents an implementation of a Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) predictioncomputer code to generate aerodynamic coefficients for the Brumby Mk. I Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV). The aerodynamic coefficients include both the force and moment coefficients. These values are verified by creating a Matlab/Simulink six degree-of-freedom model.
