Stress analysis of toroidal shell
Journal Title: INCAS BULLETIN - Year 2010, Vol 2, Issue 4
Abstract
Stress analysis for a toroidal shell used for a flying platform. We will be comparing the results obtained by classical approach and by numerical method (finite element analysis).

Experimental determinations of the aerodynamic drag for vehicles subjected to the ground effect
A moving vehicle creates a flow of the surrounding air, continuous and compressible fluid. When the movement is at a constant speed, the air flow is not time dependent and the flow distribution lines are constant. In fac...
Analytical solutions of the simplified Mathieu’s equation
Consider a second order differential linear periodic equation. The periodic coefficient is an approximation of the Mathieu’s coefficient. This equation is recast as a first-order homogeneous system. For this system we ob...

Influence of drag force upon the shortest time trajectory of an aircraft
The shortest time trajectory of an aircraft between two given locations is determined using a simple mathematical model. By taking into account the drag force (viscous friction force with the air), a problem of variation...
