OSTI ID:6366847

The present conference on helicopter technologies discusses the application of chaos methods to higher harmonic control of rotors, a FEM model reduction application to rotorcraft structure applications, the numerical simulation of powered-lift flows, V/STOL concepts for special applications, advanced rotorcraft transmissions, advanced helicopter avionics, three-dimensional shock-fitting for transonic rotor acoustics, a model-based procedure for low vibration rotor design generation, and an integrated aerodynamic load/dynamic approach to optimum rotor blade design. Also discussed are numerical optimization for tiltrotor blade aerodynamic design, aging U.S. Army aircraft, mission/task analysis for weapon system cost and risk reduction, night vision goggle compatibility with color displays in Army aircraft, the structural evaluation of a composite fuselage structure, composite actuators for airborne systems, wake surveys of advanced rotor platforms, safe strength/damage-tolerance assessment, cargo rotorcraft in future Army operations, tests of the V-22 flight control system, heliport/vertiport development, advanced surface-hardening technologies, and main rotorblade bonding automation.
