Master thesis on the development of a Multi-Purpose Helicopter Simulation Model in Matlab-Simulink.ABSTRACT:This thesis aims to describe the development of a flight simulation model for a multi-purpose helicopter. The model is developed in the Matlab/Simulink environment and also has the target to be integrated into a real-time flight simulator such as the ReDSim of the ZAV Centre for Aviation at ZHAW, Zurich University of Applied Sciences, in Winterthur, Switzerland, a research and… Show more Master thesis on the development of a Multi-Purpose Helicopter Simulation Model in Matlab-Simulink.ABSTRACT:This thesis aims to describe the development of a flight simulation model for a multi-purpose helicopter. The model is developed in the Matlab/Simulink environment and also has the target to be integrated into a real-time flight simulator such as the ReDSim of the ZAV Centre for Aviation at ZHAW, Zurich University of Applied Sciences, in Winterthur, Switzerland, a research and development flight simulator employed for both educational and industrial applications. The study mainly focuses on developing a model for the helicopter tail rotor with its shrouded configuration. Nevertheless, a model for the aerodynamic surfaces and the main rotor wake has also been developed. The first part of the work has been dedicated to the modeling of the ducted tail rotor configuration: in particular, in addition to the expected behavior of a typical tail rotor with an open configuration, the challenge was to describe the behavior of the duct and the reciprocal interaction between the duct and the fan. A model for the airframe, the main rotor head, the horizontal stabilizer, and the vertical fin has also been developed to compute the loads generated by these components during the helicopter mission. A wake model was also formulated to describe the main rotor interference on the aerodynamic surfaces and on the tail rotor. In the end, the models developed have been integrated, defining a comprehensive helicopter model. The thesis presented is part of a wider work, whose goal is to develop a high-fidelity simulation model to support engineering activities such as flight control system (FCS) design. Show less

In 2021 I became the project manger of Record Aircaft, one of the three main project developed by ICARUS PoliTO. During the year I had to interface with the management of a team, the organization of work and time-scheduling, with the need to motivate a group of people and to solve communication problems. In addition, because of my position, I have also had the need to interface with different companies to find the material and equipment useful to the project development.

Record Aircaft of ICARUS Polito is an ambitious project who aim to build an Uncrewed Aerial Vehicle with unlimited autonomy, fully electric and powered solely by solar power.During my years in the team I worked on several topics but mainly as a structural engineer. My works included:- Finite Element Method analysis of the wing structure of an UAV (Altair Hyperworks Suite)- Lamination of composites materials made mainly with carbon fiber and glass fiber- CAD drawing and… Show more Record Aircaft of ICARUS Polito is an ambitious project who aim to build an Uncrewed Aerial Vehicle with unlimited autonomy, fully electric and powered solely by solar power.During my years in the team I worked on several topics but mainly as a structural engineer.

I had also the opportunity to deal with the flight controller Pixhawk to record the flight test data. Show less
