Towards Detecting Atmospheric Coherent Structures using Small Fixed-Wing Unmanned Aircraft
… inherently depends on high quality models, a Flight Dynamic Model (FDM) suitable for a small fixed-wing aircraft in turbulent wind is derived in detail. In this presentation, some new theoretical concepts are introduced concerning the proper treatment of spatial wind gradients, and a critical …
