Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A practical engineering guide to smoother, safer, and more reliable UAV propulsion systemsRotor vibration is rarely caused by a single component. Propeller imbalance, motor harmonics, flexible arms, bearing wear, control-loop sensitivity, and payload isolation can interact in ways that are difficult to diagnose from flight symptoms alone. This book presents a structured way to understand those interactions and turn measurements into dependable engineering decisions.Written for UAV designers, test engineers, maintenance specialists, researchers, and advanced students, it connects rotor dynamics theory with the realities of multirotor, coaxial, and fixed-wing propulsion systems. Fundamental principles are developed alongside practical inspection methods, bench testing, numerical modeling, vibration analysis, and maintenance workflows.What the book coversPropulsion fundamentals: rotor-dynamic terminology, coordinate systems, scaling laws, propeller geometry, thrust, torque, power, inflow, and transient loading.Motor and drive excitation: brushless motor behavior, commutation, torque ripple, speed harmonics, motor constants, ESC effects, and hands-on characterization using electrical and speed data.Imbalance and rotating assemblies: static and couple imbalance, manufacturing and assembly errors, rotational harmonics, balancing procedures, phase measurements, and uncertainty assessment.Shafts, couplings, and bearings: flexibility, misalignment, gyroscopic effects, critical speeds, Campbell diagrams, load paths, lubrication, preload, contamination, wear, and bearing-life calculations.Structural dynamics: frame flexibility, natural frequencies, mode shapes, arm and plate modes, rotor to structure interaction, resonance avoidance, and experimental modal testing.Modeling and measurement: lumped-parameter and state-space models, finite-element methods, boundary conditions, mesh verification, accelerometers, tachometers, strain sensors, order tracking, filtering, averaging, and spectral diagnosis.Vibration reduction: elastomeric isolation, tuned absorbers, damping, structural stiffening, mass redistribution, resonance detuning, and active or adaptive control strategies.Flight and maintenance effects: IMU errors, attitude-estimation disturbances, control-loop behavior, camera and LiDAR isolation, in-flight testing, fault isolation, acceptance criteria, and repair verification.A complete path from symptom to solutionAcross twelve logically organized chapters, the book shows how to identify excitation sources, trace loads through the propulsion and airframe structure, compare analytical predictions with test data, and select corrective measures based on evidence. Practical examples support decisions about sensor placement, restraint methods, test planning, balancing, resonance avoidance, and service intervals.Rotor Dynamics for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles is a useful reference for anyone responsible for UAV performance, reliability, payload stability, acoustic behavior, or flight safety. It provides the technical foundation and diagnostic discipline needed to reduce vibration at its source and verify that the final aircraft performs as intended. This item is printed on demand.
