Stability analysis for an UAV model in a longitudinal flight
Journal Title: INCAS BULLETIN - Year 2017, Vol 9, Issue 4
Abstract
The paper presents the stability analysis of the equilibria in a longitudinal flight of an unmanned aircraft with constant forward velocity. The motion of the aircraft is described using delay differential equations with constant delays, the delay being considered in flight control compartment. The goal is to study the effects of the delays for the stability of the equilibrium points. It is eventually proved that a Hopf bifurcation appears.

Analytical solutions for the temperature field in a 2D incompressible inviscid flow through a channel with walls of solid fuel
A gas (oxidizer) flows between two parallel walls of solid fuel. A combustion is initiated: the solid fuel is vaporized and a diffusive flame occurs. The hot combustion products are submitted both to thermal diffusion an...
