• CFD Icing Simulations on a Fixed-wing UAV Engine Inlet 

      Wurst, Lukas; Wallisch, Joachim; Hann, Richard (Chapter, 2023)
      Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), or drones, are increasingly used in diverse commercial and military applications. Ensuring their reliability is crucial to prevent endangering mission targets, people, and infrastructure. ...
    • Ice Accretion: Image Post-Processing Measurement Techniques for 2D Ice Shapes 

      Enache, Adriana; Wallisch, Joachim; Van Beeck, Jeroen; Hendrick, Patrick; Hann, Richard (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Ice accretion poses substantial safety hazards for the manned and unmanned aviation industries. Its study is essential for icing events risk assessment and for the development of efficient ice protection systems. The ...
    • UAV Icing: Experimental validation data for predicting ice shapes at low Reynolds numbers 

      Hann, Richard; Müller, Nicolas Carlo; Wallisch, Joachim; Lindner, Markus Jürgen (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
    • UAV Icing: Intercycle Ice Effects on Aerodynamic Performance 

      Wallisch, Joachim; Hann, Richard (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Atmospheric in-flight icing poses a challenge to all aircraft including unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). Aircraft should avoid icing conditions unless they have ways of mitigating the negative effects of icing, e.g., if ...
    • UAV Icing: Numerical Simulation of Icing Effects on Wing and Empennage 

      Lindner, Markus Jürgen; Wallisch, Joachim; Hann, Richard (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      In-flight icing can result in severe aerodynamic performance penalties for unmanned aerial vehicles. It is therefore important to understand to which extent ice will build up on fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicles wings ...
