Design, Simulation and New Applications of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles

Topic Information

Dear Colleagues,

As the Editor of the Special Issue “Design, Simulation and New Applications of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles”, I would like to invite you to submit a paper on this subject. Recently, we have experienced a huge increase in the development of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). Every month brings new scientific papers pertaining to UAVs, which have become an even stronger accelerator for research in this field. This Special Issue aims to contribute to the development of unmanned aerial vehicles in many areas. Particular attention will be given to high-quality papers that address significant advances in the design, modeling, and control of UAVs, as well as novel applications. Potential topics include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • UAV design;
  • CAx systems in UAV design;
  • Efficiency of UAV platform;
  • FEA in UAV design;
  • CFD analysis of UAV;
  • Fiber composites in UAV;
  • MEMS in UAS;
  • Sensors in UAV;
  • UGV and UAV collaboration;
  • Multirotor UAV;
  • UAV navigation;
  • Machine learning for UAV autonomous control;
  • UAV dynamics, control and simulation;
  • New applications for UAVs;
  • Embedded systems design for UAVs;
  • UAS electronics design;
  • Algorithms and software for UAV/UAS.
