Three-dimensional strains on twisted and swept composite rotor blades in vacuum (2020)
Journal Article
Chi, C., Datta, A., Chopra, I., & Chen, R. (2021). Three-dimensional strains on twisted and swept composite rotor blades in vacuum. Journal of Aircraft, 58(1), 1-16. https://doi.org/10.2514/1.C035746

This paper presents an investigation of the effects of tip sweep on highly twisted composite rotor blades by acquiring strain data in vacuum. Three parametric test cases were designed for strain measurements, and predictions from a special three-dime...

Johnson, W., Withrow-Maser, S., Young, L., Malpica, C., Koning, W. J., Kuang, W., …Grip, H. F. (2020). Mars science helicopter conceptual design. NASA

Robotic planetary aerial vehicles increase the range of terrain that can be examined, compared to traditional landers and rovers, and have more near-surface capability than orbiters. Aerial mobility is a promising possibility for planetary explorati... Read More about Mars science helicopter conceptual design.
