AB  - The growing climate change issues and the ongoing energy crisis stipulate
further exploitation of renewable energy sources and the development of systems
capable to efficiently generate clean energy. Among the most promising are wind
turbines, that come in different shapes and sizes. Small-scale wind turbines are
economic and particularly suitable for small consumers and rural areas. They are not
too common, and further research into their performance is necessary. This paper
focuses on the design and aerodynamic performance of a small horizontal-axis wind
turbine. Its rotor geometry is described while its basic aerodynamic coefficients, power
and thrust coefficients, are computed by finite volume method in ANSYS Fluent. Flow
is assumed as incompressible and viscous, while Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes
(RANS) equations are closed by different turbulence models. Wind turbine
aerodynamic performance is estimated, and different flow visualizations are provided,
particularly focusing on the wind turbine wake.

AB  - Various algorithms are used to control modern unmanned aerial systems. However, thanks
to the simplicity of application, the most commonly used control algorithm for aircraft but also
for other dynamic systems in various industries is the PID (Proportional, Integral, Derivative)
controller. For the proper response of the system and fast stabilization during the action of
certain disturbances during its operation, it is necessary to precisely adjust the parameters of
the PID controller. This paper presents a mathematical model of a seesaw system for which a
PID control simulation was performed for different asymmetric geometries. Asymmetric
geometry implies different positions of the rotor relative to the axis of system rotation, as well
as when the rotor disks do not lie in the same plane, which simulates the influence of inaccuracy
in the construction of multi-rotor UAVs. The control simulation shows the possibility of
compensating for the mentioned geometric irregularities to ensure the appropriate behavior of
the system. The limit values of this influence are also shown, at which the PID control
algorithm cannot adequately perform the correction and ensure the correct response of the
system. The obtained simulation results would be verified by making an adequate physical
model and obtaining experimental results for the same input parameters, which may be the
subject of future research work.

AB  - Five series of specimens with two different print orientations (−45/45 and 0/90) and two print layer thicknesses (0.1 and 0.2 mm) were made. In total 60 specimens with 100% filament infill were made. One specimen series (20 pieces) was isolated as a reference or thermally untreated. Before the thermal treatment (annealing), two specimen moulding methods were used: NaCl powder (granulation 63 mm: 20 pieces) and Calcium Sulphate (Gypsum: 20 pieces). During the annealing, specimens immersed in NaCl powder were heated in a drying oven to the filament melting point (for PLA: 200°C, with a duration interval of 30 min), while the treatment of the heated specimens in gypsum was performed at a temperature of around 190°C, with duration interval of 3 h with the observed temperature inside the mould of about 100°C. An ultrasonic bath and a drying oven were used in the gypsum treatment. Temperature measurement and control during both annealing treatments were performed using a thermal imaging camera, while the temperature control inside the drying oven was performed using a digital thermometer. After treatment, the specimens in the moulds were cooled at room temperature, and the dimensions of annealing and untreated specimens were controlled. Surface morphology was characterised using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The SEM analysis reveals improved internal structure after heat treatment of the PLA specimens. These results show that the investigated specimens after heat treatments had better structural properties than the referent specimens. Tensile testing on a universal testing machine in compliance with the ASTM D638 standard was also performed. The referent PLA specimen with −45/45 and layer thickness of 0.1 mm had the highest tensile stress value (64.08 MPa) while the specimen with minimal tensile stress value before fracture was 0/90, 0.2 mm (54.81 MPa). Heat treatment in gypsum showed the most significant increase in strength with −45/45 (0.1 mm) being the strongest (71.66 MPa) while the strongest specimen treated in sodium chloride was −45/45 (0.1 mm) with maximum tensile stress of 70.08 MPa. The mechanical characteristics of the PLA were characterised using the Vickers microhardness tester. The PLA microhardness value was calculated according to standards ASTM E384 and ISO 6507. The referent PLA specimen with −45/45 (0.2 mm) orientation shows the maximal microhardness value (125 MPa), and the minimal microhardness value was observed for the 0/90 (0.1 mm) orientation specimens (108 MPa). The heat treatment specimens in gypsum have a better hardness (185 MPa) than those treated in gypsum (165 MPa), with microhardness increasing by about 12%. The essence of the work is reflected in the additional filament processing to achieve a better structural and mechanical performance of the materials and reduce the anisotropy that is characteristic of 3D printing.

AB  - Detailed studies of propeller flows are regaining both interest and significance worldwide, as the number of their different design and applications (particularly for futuristic urban air vehicles) continues to grow. An additional distinctive characteristic of small-scale unmanned air vehicles (UAV) propellers is that they are meant to operate in a wide range of (previously considered atypical) operating conditions, including backward flight, flight in the vicinity of obstacles,
hard/ground surfaces, etc. These specific requirements raise the issue of the effects of ground proximity on their aerodynamic performance. This paper computationally investigates flows around a small-scale, custom-made propeller in ground effect. Different ground distances are considered and novel thrust and power relations (dependencies) on them are proposed. In order to obtain sufficiently reliable and accurate results and capture the most significant flow features, Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations are solved by finite volume method. In addition, interesting flow visualizations are presented. Although the obtained thrust trend correlates well with the conventionally used semi-empirical formula, more realistic estimations are obtained for small ground distances. Furthermore, the positive effects of ground vicinity on rotor aerodynamic performances are once again confirmed and quantified.

AB  - The application of composite materials in the aerospace industry has begun since the middle of the 20th century. Their use in various elements of aircraft constructions has extended over time. Primary load carrying elements of some aircraft constructions are made of composite materials due to their excellent mechanical properties as well as the good strength-to-weight ratio. Propellers and fan blades of jet engines are increasingly made of high-quality composite materials. Besides the mechanical properties of the material, production technology has a great impact on composite structure quality.
The production process of two-bladed composite propeller is presented in this paper. Manufacturing of composite propeller for multirotor UAV application with suitable technology and relatively cheap materials is the main motive of this work. According to this motive, both (upper and lower) shells of the propeller are made of balanced plain weave glass fiber with epoxy matrix. The vacuum infusion process is used for shell manufacturing. After the polymerization process of shells (24h, 25°C), unidirectional carbon fabric reinforcements in the root zone and expanding polyurethane core are added during the bonding process. Then, the bonded propeller was cured 4h at 70°C.
The high production process quality of the two-bladed propeller with the previously described technology is partly confirmed in this paper. Namely, the checking of propeller geometry and comparison with the CAD model was performed. Results of that comparison showed that a high degree of agreement between produced and CAD model was obtained. Comparison of static test and numerical structural analysis could be subjects of future work. That would provide the final validation of manufacturing technology quality which is described in this paper.

AB  - Contemporary, light-weight, unmanned air vehicles almost exclusively imply propeller rotors that enable them to hover, as well as to move vertically and horizontally at acceptable amount of required power (that is usually supplied by electric motors). Rotor main parts are blades − curved, rotational lifting surfaces subject to conjugate aerodynamic, inertial and gravitational loads. Their skin is usually made of composite materials, i.e. glass or carbon fibres (or their combination) immersed in epoxy resin. Additional inner structural elements may include shear webs, spar caps, ribs or foam fillers. The goal of the presented research study is conducting and validating structural analysis of a propeller blade by finite element method. Different structural models (containing just skin, or skin with foam filler), materials (glass or carbon, uni-or biaxial plies), and ply-up sequences (differing in layer numbers and orientations) are considered. The complete blade geometry is modelled, including the root and tip sections. The blade is clamed at the root, while computed aerodynamic, inertial and gravitational forces are distributed along its surface (and volume). Since the blade operates in axisymmetric conditions, it was possible to perform static structural analyses. Obtained results include deflection (and deformation) fields, normal and shear stress distributions along the plies, etc. From the acquired numerical values, it is possible to define an adequate blade structure that will be able to withstand all working loads (multiplied by necessary safety factors) and ensure safe flight of the aircraft. Future research may include modal or fatigue analyses of propeller blades.

AB  - The main topic that is investigated in the present research is the turbulent flow around small-scale rotor blades in hovering flight condition. Small-scale rotorcraft imply somewhat specific operating conditions such as low Reynolds numbers, considerable viscous effects, degraded aerodynamic performances, flow separation, rotational flow, cyclic load cases, etc. It is therefore very important to perform as accurate as possible flow simulations that will enable obtaining practical aerodynamic data that can be used in subsequent structural and flight mechanics analyses. This paper provides the description of steps that are to be conducted when simulating hovering flow. Here, a quasi-steady approach, that combines RANS equations closed by k-ω SST turbulence model with the multiple reference frames, is adopted. Both quantitative and qualitative results are presented. Furthermore, the numerical model is validated against the obtained experimental data. The correspondence between the two sets of results can be considered satisfactory (relative differences for thrust coefficient amount to 15%, while they are even lower for the torque coefficient), while the effects of Reynolds number are not significant when throttle is above 40%.

AB  - The trend of wind turbine development has a special significance in the exploitation of renewable energy sources. At higher altitudes, we have better wind energy utilization higher speed and their conversion are achieved in the best possible use of wind turbines. The development of new technologies opens space for a new generation of wind turbines with a 20MW rated power. In recent years, various feasibility studies have shown that wind turbines with large rotor diameter and high towers give positive shifts in the analysis of structural and aerodynamic parameters, with a focus on reducing overall mass and damping vibrations due to the use of new materials. In this paper, the evolution of high power wind turbines and an overview of the technological development of the basic components of the turbine will be presented. Perspectives in the further development of wind turbines with rated power above 20MW will be also considered.

AB  - U ovom radu, izvršena je analiza i predikcija brzina štampe u eksploatacionim uslovima. Postoje odstupanja zadane brzine na štampaču od proračunate stvarne vrednosti. S tim u vezi, postoji i razlika u vremenima izrade. Ovde je posmatrana brzina kao ravnomerno pravolinijsko kretanja brizgaljke.

abstract = "U ovom radu, izvršena je analiza i predikcija brzina štampe u eksploatacionim uslovima. Postoje odstupanja zadane brzine na štampaču od proračunate stvarne vrednosti. S tim u vezi, postoji i razlika u vremenima izrade. Ovde je posmatrana brzina kao ravnomerno pravolinijsko kretanja brizgaljke. Zato, VNM je poslužila za predikciju Vsr, sa promenom ulaznih parametara.

AB  - Over the past decade, multicopter unmanned aircrafts have gained extreme popularity. Since their application spans from children toys to video surveillance, surface mapping, payload delivery, communication, etc, much work is being done worldwide on their promotion and advancement. With many electric components commercially available, it has become imperative to develop customized and optimized mechanical parts. This paper investigates the possibility of defining the optimal two-bladed propeller for an existing small electric motor of known characteristics. The propeller should be geometrically simple to reduce the cost of product ion but still provide the greatest thrust for given angular speed and available torque. While cubic chord and linear pitch distributions along the blade are predefined, the airfoil is parameterized by the Class-Shape Transformation (CST) technique (by 6 input parameters). Rotor performance is estimated by an improved blade element momentum theory (BEMT) while the two-criteria optimization is performed by genetic algorithm (GA).

AB  - Savremene legure na bazi nikla i titanijuma, sa većim brojem novih elemenata, imaju široku primenu. Tako dobijene nove legure titanijuma su od velikog praktičnog značaja u vazduhoplovstvu, a novodobijene legure nikla u energetici i nuklearnoj tehnici. U okviru ovog rada su prikazani rezultati tretiranja legura titanijuma i nikla snopovima lasera u vazduhu, na atmosferskom pritisku, kao i pojedinih uzoraka u vakumskim uslovima. Dobijene laserske modifikacije mikrostruktura uzoraka su analizirane različitim metodama ispitivanja, koje uključuju optičku i elektronsku mikroskopiju (SEM). Savremenim numeričkim metodama je, za izabrane režime rada lasera, simulirano grejanje do tačke topljenja odgovarajućeg materijala.
AB  - Commonly implemented nickel and titanium alloys are nowadays alloyed with many new elements. Obtained in this way, new Ti-alloys are of great practical significance in aircraft industry, while Ni-alloys are important in energetic and nuclear technique. Selected alloys of titanium and nickel have been treated in vacuum by various thermo-mechanical regimes. Most of the samples have been exposed to laser beams in the air, at the atmospheric pressure, while some of the samples have been treated in vacuum conditions. Laser-induced modifications of the samples microstructures have been analyzed by various methods of investigation, which include optical- and electron microscopy (SEM). The heating up of the selected Ni- and Ti-alloys to the melting point, in selected regimes of laser operation, has been simulated by contemporary numerical methods.
