Experimental verification of lift enhancement of laminar flow airfoil RG15 in low reynolds number boundary layers (2015)
Presentation / Conference
Ariff, O., Salami, E., Teh, W., Sajjad, K., & Go, T. (2015, January). Experimental verification of lift enhancement of laminar flow airfoil RG15 in low reynolds number boundary layers. Presented at 12th International Bhurban Conference on Applied Sciences and Technology (IBCAST), Islamabad, Pakistan

Dynamic soaring is a cyclic manoeuvre practiced by RC glider pilots and marine avian species which utilises wind gradients on the leeward side of geophysical features to increase flight speed. The technique has been characterized by extraordinary lif... Read More about Experimental verification of lift enhancement of laminar flow airfoil RG15 in low reynolds number boundary layers.

Key parameters of air breathing two-stroke combustion engines for integration into small scale UAVs (2015)
Presentation / Conference
Ariff, O., Salami, E., & Romli, F. (2015, January). Key parameters of air breathing two-stroke combustion engines for integration into small scale UAVs. Presented at 53rd American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA) Aerospace Sciences Conference, Kissimmee, Florida

The advent of low cost civilian small scale UAV has resulted in the extension of the limits of range and endurance. Among the many design parameters, the selection of powerplants and propellers for optimal range and endurance is dependent upon known...
