Résumé

This paper outlines the random vibration analysis of a structural wing model designed for an electric Vertical Takeoff and Landing (VTOL) Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) called the Manta. The Manta is designed for agricultural cargo operations as part of the Carleton University Bio-inspired Environmentally Friendly Aerial Vehicle (BEFAV) capstone project. This analysis expands on and updates the original structural analysis of the Manta to determine the vibrational response of the wings caused by the engine and aerodynamic vibration using ANSYS modal and random vibration tools.

 

Biographie de l'auteur-e

Joana Rocha, Carleton Univeristy

Dr. Joana Rocha is an Associate Professor and Associate Chair in the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at Carleton University, in Ottawa. Before joining Carleton University, Dr. Rocha was a Visiting Researcher at NASA Langley Research Centre and the National Institute of Aerospace, in Virginia, USA. She received her Ph.D. and M.A.Sc. degrees at the University of Victoria, in Victoria, where her research focused on the development of models for the prediction of flow-induced noise in aircraft. Since joining Carleton University as a Professor in 2012, Dr. Rocha has established the Aeroacoustics Research Laboratory, with unique capabilities. The aeroacoustic high-speed wind tunnel allows Dr. Rocha and her team to develop state-of-the-art research in areas such as aircraft noise prediction and reduction. Dr. Rocha’s research focuses on aircraft noise prediction, design and optimization of aircraft structures for noise reduction, aeroacoustics, turbulent-flow induced noise, structural-acoustics, and turbulence modelling with applications in aerospace. Through her research, Dr. Rocha aims to design and develop new aircraft concepts that are quieter.
