  2. Aircraft flight mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aircraft_flight_mechanics

    Aircraft flight mechanics are relevant to fixed wing (gliders, aeroplanes) and rotary wing (helicopters) aircraft.An aeroplane (airplane in US usage), is defined in ICAO Document 9110 as, "a power-driven heavier than air aircraft, deriving its lift chiefly from aerodynamic reactions on surface which remain fixed under given conditions of flight".

  3. Tumblewing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tumblewing

    Animation of tumblewing in flight. A tumblewing or "tumble wing" or "tumbling wing" is a glider or kite wing design which rotates about an axis transverse to the apparent wind, not necessarily horizontal.

  4. Flight control surfaces - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flight_control_surfaces

    The elevators move up and down together. When the pilot pulls the stick backward, the elevators go up. Pushing the stick forward causes the elevators to go down. Raised elevators push down on the tail and cause the nose to pitch up. This makes the wings fly at a higher angle of attack, which generates more lift and more drag. Centering the ...

  5. Aircraft flight dynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aircraft_flight_dynamics

    The yaw plane translational equation, as in the pitch plane, equates the centripetal acceleration to the side force. = where (beta) is the sideslip angle, Y the side force and r the yaw rate. The moment equations are a bit trickier.

  6. Flight envelope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flight_envelope

    This is because when the plane is not flying at the edges of the envelope, its extra power will be greater, and that means more power for things like climbing or maneuvering. General aviation aircraft have very small flight envelopes, with speeds ranging from perhaps 50 to 200 mph, whereas the extra power available to modern fighter aircraft ...

  7. Lift (force) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lift_(force)

    For steady, level flight, the integrated force due to the pressure differences is equal to the total aerodynamic lift of the airplane and to the airplane's weight. According to Newton's third law, this pressure force exerted on the ground by the air is matched by an equal-and-opposite upward force exerted on the air by the ground, which offsets ...

  8. Chine (aeronautics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chine_(aeronautics)

    [note 1] In a flying boat hull or floatplane float, the longitudinal line of sharp change in cross-section where the bottom plane meets the sidewall is an example of a chine. On some supersonic aircraft a chine extends sideways for some distance, with a very sharp edge blending in with the main wing leading edge root.

  9. Vortex lattice method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vortex_lattice_method

    Simulation of an airplane using Open VOGEL, an open source framework for aerodynamic simulations based in the UVLM. The Vortex lattice method, (VLM), is a numerical method used in computational fluid dynamics, mainly in the early stages of aircraft design and in aerodynamic education at university level.
