Introduction to Drones Aeronautics (UAS231)

This course covers classical and modem aerodynamics design concepts for both fixed wing and Multi­-rotor UAVs. In this course, students are introduced aerodynamics design fundamentals such as lift, drag, thrust and basic flight control elements. The course will cover classical dynamic analysis of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles using structure and fluid mechanics principles. This in addition to introduction to modem aerodynamics design tools using CAE (Computer Aided Engineering) software.
