In the conditions of effective training in aviation for dispatchers and pilots, it requires the use of infocommunication systems capable of working under conditions of fuzzy uncertainty in real time. The functioning of such systems is based on fuzzy inference systems. However, the development and implementation of these systems requires the creation of fuzzy knowledge bases. Therefore, special attention in this study is paid to the creation of a system of fuzzy inferences and the formation of a fuzzy knowledge base of this system. The result is a lozenge-type fuzzy inference system. The fuzzy knowledge base of the system contains the rules according to which, based on the results of test computer game problems of varying complexity, a conclusion is formed about the applicant’s ability to acquire knowledge and skills in a certain specialty.When developing the rules, both the results of passing different levels of professionally oriented computer test games were taken into account, and the interest of dispatchers and pilots was taken into account. Therefore, the proposed fuzzy rules of the knowledge base of the fuzzy inference system make it possible to assess not only the ability of the controller or pilot to solve certain problems. This dependence of the input dataset on time allows the implementation of a fuzzy inference system of the Sugeno type, using clear input data in the formation of inferences.

With the widespread use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in life, the real-time recognition of UAVs has become an important issue. The authors of this paper mainly studied the application of the random forest (RF) algorithm in the outdoor real-time recognition of UAVs. Mel-Frequency Cepstral Coefficient (MFCC) features were extracted from sound signals firstly, and then the RF method was combined with weighted voting to obtain the improved random forest (IRF) method to identify UAV sounds and environmental sounds. An experimental analysis was conducted. The modeling time of the IRF method increased by 9.52% compared with the RF method, and the recognition rate of the IRF method decreased with the increase of the distance from the microphone; however, the recognition rate of the IRF method was always higher than that of the RF method, and the recognition rate of the IRF method for the mixed samples was always higher than 90%. When the distance was 10 m, the IRF method still had a recognition rate of 91.29%. The experimental results verify the effectiveness of the IRF method for the outdoor real-time recognition of UAVs and its practical application feasibility.

The external loads from the continuous turbulence on the elastic high aspect ratio wing of the transport category aircraft are calculated by Dynamics of Turbulence Air (DTA) and Interactive Multidisciplinary Aircraft Design (IMAD) methods. The response to continuous turbulence was determined taking into account the requirements of CS-25.341(b). The model of the aircraft structure is directed by symmetrical spatial beam schematization. Determination of aerodynamic forces and moments was performed using the methods of linear computational aerodynamics: the panel method of Doublet-Lattice and Constant Pressures (DLM/CPM) and the method of circulation. Comparison of the results of load determination showed that, in general, the values of the loads calculated using IMAD are lower than the values calculated using DTA. Therefore, when designing an aircraft, it is advisable to combine these methods: calculate the loads using IMAD, as a more functional method, and then the loads obtained in the critical points of the calculated flight area should be confirmed using the DTA method. Thus, this study determined the difference between the results of the calculation of loads from the continuous turbulence on the elastic wing of the transport category aircraft using DTA and IMAD methods.

The paper presents tribological tests of selected materials used as liners in a composite hydraulic cylinder. Three coating materials were used for the analysis: Sika F180 polyurethane, Huntsman Araldite LY1564 with Aradur 3487 amine hardener and Bezlona 1111 Super Metal. In addition, uncoated carbon epoxy laminate (CFRP) samples were used as reference material. The instantaneous course of the friction force, its maximum and average value, were the analysed parameters. Ball-on-disk tests were performed on a specialised tester that allows, among other things, to control the operating conditions (clamping force, operating temperature, speed, friction path) and measurement of the instantaneous value of the friction force. After these tests, the friction paths were observed using a Leica DCM8 contactless profilometer with an EPI 20x lens. The amount of energy dissipated due to friction was also determined. The conducted tests and comparative analyses allowed to conclude that the F180 material is the most desirable in terms of tribological properties.

Reliability and maintenance analysis in aviation industry focused on a main objective of the accident and incident investigations what are help to better understand the causes of accidents. In the article suggested the underlying concept by scorecard of situations what lead to aviation accidents. In the present research, the aviation accident connected with a landing gear and a problem of failure to follow maintenance instructions during a maintenance on aircraft landing gear hydraulic drive was under an investigation, on an example of root cause analysis of the failure of hydraulic flexible highpressure hoses. The approach presented in this research of experimental measurements, based on fluid pressure measuring, high-pressure hoses vibration measuring and frequency’s analysis. By spectrum analyses was found that high-pressure hoses are most susceptible to deformation at frequencies to the response of the fluid within, as well as at hoses material resonance frequencies. The compact version of hoses is more deformational on the resonance points than a standard version of hose. In final according to analyses, was established that disrespect of the frequency conditions was leaded to causes irreversible degradation changes of the hose inner structure and occurrence of material defects inside layers contact what lead in final step to hose failure.

This article presents basic methodology and some algorithms for estimating attitude and heading angles of an unmanned or optionally piloted aircraft in the event of a partial failure of the on-board measurement systems. The aim of the research is to develop effective estimation algorithms of non-measurable aircraft state variables. Correlation between quantities describing kinematics of the aircraft’s movement in space were used. Properties of the estimation algorithms are illustrated by exemplary calculations using real data recorded during test flights of the optionally controlled MP-02A Czajka airplane. Quality of the estimated signals allows to continue flight in case of a non-catastrophic failure of the measurement systems. Developed algorithms are used in control systems designed at the Department of Avionics and Control of the Rzeszów University of Technology, dedicated to unmanned and optionally controlled light aircraft.

Because the Polish Air Force currently uses F-16 and MiG-29 aircraft, the aim of the study was to conduct a comparison of the susceptibility to destruction in combat of these two aircraft. The first part of the work concerned the analysis of individual critical components, such as: general characteristics of the airframe structure, aircraft engine, flight control system, fuel system, aircraft weapons, radar system. The index of susceptibility to destruction in combat was defined considering the listed critical components and the following types of enemy weapon: aircraft gun, air-to-air missile, anti-aircraft gun, surface-to-air missile. The analysis proved that the aircraft have similar susceptibility to damage in combat, a slight advantage of the F-16 aircraft in this respect was determined. The presented scheme can be used to analyze other aircraft. Proposals of aircraft modifications, directions of further actions, possibilities of using the described method were presented. The method can be used to making decisions by governments regarding the purchase aircraft for their fleets and identify aircraft critical components with high susceptibility to destruction in order to introduce appropriate modifications by military aircraft manufacturers.

The aim of the research described in this paper is analysis of the deformation of the aircraft tyre subjected to static load. Based on the results of experimental tests with a different value of inflation pressure, favorable pressure conditions for use in the tyre of an ultralight aircraft were determined. The deflection characteristics of the tyre depending on the nominal pressure was determined using the digital image correlation technique. In the range of loads not leading to excessive tyre deflection, quite linear relation between vertical deflection and vertical force is observed. The safe minimum pressure in tyre loaded with a force of 12 kN is 2.5 bar. The experimental results will be used to select a shock absorber for a 600 kg ultralight, light sport aircraft commercialised by the company Ekolot (Krosno, Poland).

Due to its compactness, agility, good hover performance, and ease of carriage, coaxial rotor Mini UAV is apt for various military and civilian applications in mountain terrain. This paper examines various factors to arrive at viable configurations of coaxial rotor Mini UAV for applications in mountain terrain. A consideration of the coaxial rotor Mini UAV to analyse the suitability for mountain terrain is presented. Coaxial rotor design is evaluated to assess the design requirements of mountain terrain. Various design parameters are analysed to arrive at viable design configurations for coaxial rotor Mini UAVs to operate in mountain terrain. Due to mechanical complexities, more than three blades per rotor for a small coaxial rotary wing aircraft is not recommended. The compact frame of the coaxial rotor Mini UAV is a key advantage, so rotor blades with a radius bigger than 1 m are not desirable. With a radius smaller than 1 m, a range of 0.9 m to 1.2 m, and an rotor speed between 900 RPM and 1200 RPM for 3-blade and 2-blade coaxial rotors, the Mini UAV offers a variety of options for applications in mountain terrain.

This paper examines various factors to arrive at viable configurations of coaxial rotor Mini UAV for applications in mountain terrain. A consideration of the coaxial rotor Mini UAV to analyse the suitability for mountain terrain is presented. Coaxial rotor design is evaluated to assess the design requirements of mountain terrain. Various design parameters are analysed to arrive at viable design configurations for coaxial rotor Mini UAVs to operate in mountain terrain. Due to mechanical complexities, more than three blades per rotor for a small coaxial rotary wing aircraft is not recommended. The compact frame of the coaxial rotor Mini UAV is a key advantage, so rotor blades with a radius bigger than 1 m are not desirable. With a radius smaller than 1 m, a range of 0.9 m to 1.2 m, and an rotor speed between 900 RPM and 1200 RPM for 3-blade and 2-blade coaxial rotors, the Mini UAV offers a variety of options for applications in mountain terrain.","PeriodicalId":51910,"journal":{"name":"Aviation","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45081992","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
