Maqsood, Adnan and Tiauw, Hiong Go (2012) Design improvement of a versatile ducted-fan UAV / Adnan Maqsood and Tiauw Hiong Go. Journal of Mechanical Engineering (JMechE), 9 (1). pp. 1-17. ISSN 1823-5514 ; 2550-164X
Abstract

The paper discusses the aerodynamic design improvement of a ducted fan unmanned Aerial vehicle (UAV). The UAV is capable of take-off vertically, hover and transition to cruise and is equipped with wing. the aerodynamics of the UAV is estimated through wind-tunnel experiments. The design improvement is carried out for the two phases of mission profile: hover and cruise.
