This book was released on 2018-07-24 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A survey of applications of mathematical programming methods is used to improve the design of helicopters and their components. Applications of multivariable search techniques in the finite dimensional space are considered. Five categories of helicopter design problems are considered: (1) conceptual and preliminary design, (2) rotor-system design, (3) airframe structures design, (4) control system design, and (5) flight trajectory planning. Key technical progress in numerical optimization methods relevant to rotorcraft applications are summarized. Miura, H. Ames Research Center NASA-TM-86010, A-9856, NAS 1.15:86010 RTOP 532-06-11
