| Abstract: |
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have become important platforms for surveillance because they can perform monitoring tasks with improved operational safety, flexibility, and efficiency. This paper presents the design and simulation-based analysis of a fixed-wing UAV intended for surveillance missions. A conceptual comparison of drone configurations was first carried out, and the fixed-wing configuration was selected because of its superior endurance, aerodynamic efficiency, and suitability for long-range operation. The UAV geometry was developed using calculated aerodynamic design parameters, and the Eppler 387 airfoil was selected for efficient low-speed aerodynamic behavior. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analysis was conducted to evaluate lift, drag, pressure distribution, velocity behaviour, and aerodynamic moment over different angles of attack, while structural and modal analyses were performed in ANSYS to assess deformation, stress, strain, and vibration response for multiple composite materials [cite:1]. The results indicate that Kevlar 149 fiber epoxy provides the best overall structural stability, lower deformation, and improved vibration resistance among the studied materials, making it suitable for fixed-wing surveillance UAV applications. |
