A force plate for measuring contact forces during dependent transfers onboard aircraft

Creator:

Schafer, Christopher A.

Abstract:

The transfer of air travelers with disabilities between a mobility aid and an aircraft seat is a major source of injury for both the travelers and the airline personnel assisting in the transfer. The risk to both parties might be reduced through the biomechanical study of the transfer task. Such...

Aircraft wing optimization using B-spline models and panel methods

Creator:

Jackson, Danielle Monique

Abstract:

This research investigates shape optimization process, using b-spline models and panel methods, to achieve a high lift to drag ratio for an aerodynamic structure. This research is a proof of concept for further research in aerodynamic shape optimization. The coupled process, involving the design and optimization of a random shape,...
