Stability analysis for a twin boom H- tail Medium Scale UAV through simulated dynamic model

Abstract

This paper presents on the stability analysis for RAVAN twin boom H-Tail Medium Scale UAV which has been developed by University of Moratuwa. It is required to understand the UAV behavior for the small perturbations in high altitudes while it is flying to be invisible. Indeed, without doing a proper stability analysis in different flying conditions, there is a high risk to fail the UAV for perturbations. Not only that but also it will help to optimize aerodynamic behavior for prolonging the flight endurance and effective deployment. The proper stability analysis will facilitate to increase the control flexibility.XFLR5 computational fluid dynamic software is used to do this stability analysis.
