Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The advent of fifth- and sixth-generation fighter aircrafts, the rapid evolution of drones and airships over the past decade, and the expansion of their applications have created a pressing need to advance related theories. These developments encompass various domains, including aerodynamics (theoretical, numerical, and experimental), control theory, flight stability, stabilization, and trajectory generation for these flying vehicles. The Special Issue "Advanced Aircraft Aerodynamics, Flight Stability, Stabilization and Control of Flying Vehicles" in the journal Machines is precisely dedicated to these advancements.
