A benchtop flight control demonstrator (2019)
Journal Article
Duran, J. R., Whidborne, J. F., Carrizales, M., & Pontillo, A. (2021). A benchtop flight control demonstrator. International Journal of Mechanical Engineering Education, 49(1), 80--97. https://doi.org/10.1177/0306419019852688

A feedback control demonstrator is described. The demonstrator is intended for the demonstration of control principles applied to flight control of fixed-wing aircraft and hence is suitable for aeronautical programmes. The demonstrator consists of a... Read More about A benchtop flight control demonstrator.

Investigating pitching moment stall through dynamic wind tunnel test (2019)
Journal Article
Pontillo, A., Yusuf, S., Lopez, G., Rennie, D., & Lone, M. (2020). Investigating pitching moment stall through dynamic wind tunnel test. Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part G: Journal of Aerospace Engineering, 234(2), 267-279. https://doi.org/10.1177/0954410019861853

Experimental characterisation of aircraft dynamic stall can be a challenging and complex system identification activity. In this article, the authors present a method that combines dynamic wind tunnel testing with parameter estimation techniques to s...
