Vertical Lift Aircraft Design Conference, San Francisco, CA, Jan. 17-19, 1990, Proceedings
Topics presented include an overview of the NASA High Speed Rotorcraft Technology Development Program, propulsion system design for supersonic STOVL aircraft, NASA studies on hot gas ingestion and ground effects on STOVL aircraft, and the V/STOL transport concepts for special operations. Also presented are fault-tolerant architecture for a fly-by-light flight control computer, the servo flap in an advanced rotor control system, the high-speed rotorcraft V/STOL, and the improvement to interactive two-dimensional rotor section design. Also contributed are the experimental investigation of wingtip aerodynamic loading, the performance of an optimized rotor blade at off-design flight conditions, an unmanned air vehicle concept with tipjet drive, and AH-64A Apache hydraulic flight control system survivability design concepts.
