Design, Build and Fly a Flying Wing
Design, Build and Fly a Flying Wing is a scholarly work, published in 2018 in ''Athens Journal of Τechnology & Engineering''. The main subjects of the publication include aerospace engineering, hybrid-propellant rocket, architectural engineering, Automated Aerial Refueling, aeronautics, environmental effects of aviation, wing, computer science, and engineering. This research represents one of the graduation projects for the final year of undergraduate students in Aerospace Engineering Department for the academic year 2015-2016.The objective of the present paper is to design, build and test a flying wing.The purpose of this work is to describe the methodology and decision making involved in the process of designing a flying wing.First, the design is based on the design theories and followed by performance, stability analysis, and motion simulation.The wind-tunnel tests are performed to compare theoretical results based on design with the experimental measured results.Finally, a real flight test is performed to achieve the objective of the project.
