Development of tilt-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV): Material selection and structural analysis on wing design

Abstract

This paper presents the design of a tilting rotor unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), evaluation of flight loads based on the standard requirement, structural analysis to determine stress and sizing of the wing, and flight test of the UAV. The main objective is to perform structural analysis to size the UAV's wing section. The analysis shows that the structure design of the wing is safe to be used.
