Structural Design of a Large-Scale 3D-Printed High-Altitude Propeller: Methodology and Experimental Validation
This paper presents an original approach to the structural design and analysis of a 3D-printed thermoplastic-core propeller blade for high-altitude UAVs. A macroscale linear isotropic numerical model for the behavior of 3D-printed parts (in Tough PLA, as well as ABS) is fed with values from tensile...
