Comparative study of finite element analysis and geometrically exact beam analysis of a composite helicopter blade
Ataç, Meryem Nisa; Kayran, Altan; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2018)
In this master thesis, comparative study of the finite element analysis and geometrically exact beam analysis of a composite helicopter blade is performed. The objective of this study is to investigate the applicability of the geometrically exact beam analysis of the composite helicopter blade in predicting the structural response of the composite blade. To evaluate the structural response determined by the geometrically exact beam analysis of the composite blade, detailed finite element model of the blade ...
Comparative study of transient and quasi-steady aeroelastic analysis of composite wind turbine blade in steady wind conditions
Sargın, Hakan; Kayran, Altan; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2014)
The objective of this study is to conduct a comparative study of the transient and quasi-steady aeroelastic analysis of a composite wind turbine blade in steady wind conditions. Transient analysis of the wind turbine blade is performed by the multi-body dynamic code Samcef Wind Turbine which uses blade element momentum theory for aerodynamic load calculation. For this purpose, a multi-body wind turbine model is generated with rigid components except for the turbine blades. For the purposes of the study, a r...
Comparative study of yield-power law drilling fluids flowing through annulus
Ozbayoglu, M. E.; Omurlu, C. (Informa UK Limited, 2007-01-01)
An exact solution for calculating the frictional pressure losses of yield-power law (YPL) fluids flowing through concentric annulus is proposed. A solution methodology is presented for determining the friction factor for laminar and nonlaminar flow regimes. The performance of the proposed model is compared to widely used models as well as the experimental results of 10 different mud samples obtained from the literature. The results showed that the proposed model could estimate the frictional pressure losses...
Comparative study of attitude control methods based on Euler angles, quaternions, angle-axis pairs and orientation matrices
Özgören, Mustafa Kemal (2019-03-01)
This paper presents a comparative study about the attitude control methods based on four commonly used error indicators, namely the triad of 3-2-1 deviational Euler angles, the error quaternion, the deviational angle-axis pair and the orientation error matrix. These error indicators are used here with the same backstepping control law to have a common basis of comparison. This control law makes the controller track a restoring angular velocity generated here specifically for each error indicator. This compa...
