Material Selections and Manufacturing Methods for Multipurpose Small Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (SUAVs)
PI John Leishman
CO-I Trevor Perrott
The American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA) issues regulations defining the Design/Build/Fly (DBF) Small Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (SUAV) design competition. This program centers on exploring both new and traditional aircraft design and manufacturing approaches for SUAVs that are optimized for the missions specified by the DBF competition. In-depth material selection studies will be executed and documented as part of the detail design phase of the aircraft. The aircraft’s mission-specific structural strength-to-weight ratio will be studied and optimized.
