STRUCTURAL DESIGN AND ANALYSIS OF SINGLE-SEATER HELICOPTER
ABSTRACT:
The project deals with the detail analysis of helicopter structure for an engine of 37bhp and its appropriate mounting position with respect to the Centre of Gravity obtained from the design. It consists of design and analysis of heli-frame such as cabins, landing skids, tail configuration. The main objective of our project is to select appropriate material of high strength and weightless which can resist entire loads and vibrations generated during its flight. Different materials that have been selected to be fit various parts of helicopter must sustain the forces and moments developed.
