In this study the dynamical modeling of the unsteady flow over a flapping wing is considered. The technique is based on collecting instantaneous velocity field data of the flow using Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV), applying image processing to these snapshots to locate the airfoil, filling the airfoil and its surface with proper velocity data, applying Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (POD) to these post-processed images to compute the POD modes and time coefficients, and finally fitting a discrete time state space dynamical model to the trajectories of the time coefficients using subspace system identification (N4SID). The procedure is applied using MATLAB for the data obtained from NACA 0012, SD 7003, elliptic airfoil and flat plate, and the results show that the dynamical model obtained can represent the flow dynamics with acceptable accuracy.

Dynamical Modeling of the Unsteady Flow over a Flapping Wing by applying Proper Orthogonal Decomposition and System Identification to Particle Image Velocimetry Data
Durmaz, Oguz; Karaca, H. Deniz; Ozen, G. Deniz; KASNAKOĞLU, Coşku; Kurtuluş, Dilek Funda (2011-12-15)
In this work a novel approach for the dynamical modeling of the unsteady flow over a pitching airfoil is considered. The technique is based on collecting instantaneous velocity field data of the flow using particle image velocimetry (PIV), applying image processing to these snapshots to locate the airfoil, filling the airfoil and its surface with proper velocity data, applying proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) to these post-processed images to compute the POD modes and time coefficients, and finally fit...
Dynamical modelling of the flow over a flapping wing using proper orthogonal decomposition and system identification techniques
DURMAZ, Oğuz; KARACA, H Deniz; ÖZEN, G Deniz; KASNAKOĞLU, COŞKU; Kurtuluş, Dilek Funda (2013-04-01)
A systematic approach for the dynamical modelling of the unsteady flow over a flapping wing is developed, which is based on instantaneous velocity field data of the flow collected using particle image velocimetry (PIV) and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations. The location and orientation of the airfoil is obtained by image processing and the airfoil is filled with proper velocity data. Proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) is applied to these post-processed images to compute POD modes and time co...
Design of a medium range tactical UAV and improvement of its performance by using winglets
Turanoğuz, Eren; Alemdaroğlu, Hüseyin Nafiz; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2014)
The study encompasses the design, performance analysis and aerodynamic improvement of the designed medium range tactical unmanned aerial vehicle. Main requirements are set as following; cruising altitute above 3500m, endurance of approximately 10-12 hours, range of 150 km and payload of 60 kg. The conventional design phase is based on the employment of historical equations and experiences. Nowadays, employement of well known equations and experiences during the desing process are not enough to reveal a comp...
An Aerostructural 3D wing optimization using parallel genetic algorithms
Arpacı, Anıl; Üçoluk, Göktürk; Department of Computer Engineering (2019)
As a multi-disciplinary optimization problem, aerostructural shape optimization of airplane wings requires both aerodynamic and structural analysis to meet an objective defined as the sum of parameters like drag to lift ratio and wing weight, subjected to penalty of structural yield stress and geometrical sizing constraints to get aerodynamically efficient and lightweight 3D wings. In our study, genetic algorithms are utilized for optimization of 3D wing with its internal structural components. In order to ...
Landing autopilot design for an UAV
Hanköylü, Merve; Çiloğlu, Tolga; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2011)
In this thesis, a landing autopilot for an UAV (IAI Pioneer RQ-2) is designed based on a nonlinear MATLAB model implemented with MATLAB/Simulink. In order to control the movement of the UAV at lateral and longitudinal axes, a speed, an altitude, a heading angle (direction) and a yaw rate controllers are designed. Controller design procedure is started with determination of different trim points of the aircraft. Next, the corresponding initial states and initial inputs are obtained. The model is linearized a...
