    ELECTRIC MOTOR AS A REPLACEMENT FOR COMBUSTION ENGINE IN PROPULSION SYSTEM OF AIRCRAFT
    (Žilinská univerzita v Žiline, 2020) Michalík, Matúš; Čerňan, Jozef
    Main aim of this paper is to acquaint readers with a new-formed trend in aviation, which is electrification of aircraft propulsion systems. In thesis I target to social-political, econo]mical and technical aspects of this kind of propulsion which have positive or negative tendency in next evolution of electric propulsion. With my mentor we assume that the main problem will be with energy density of Lithium batteries which is sixty time lower than density of comertional jet fuels. This problem we present in examples of three airplanes with different capacity and range. At the end of the thesis we presented the most interesting existing project of electrically-propelled aircraft and analyzethe main advantages of electric propulsion.

    Konštrukcia UAV typu VTOL s náhradou mechanického riadenia rotorov softvérovým systémom
    (University of Žilina, 2024) Michalík, Matúš; Pecho, Pavol
    The article focuses on the construction of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) with vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) capabilities, inspired by the American military aircraft V22 Osprey. The main goal of the paper is to design and construct the UAV using software control based on the "virtual swashplate" concept. The paper covers the design, construction, testing, and evaluation of the UAV, including a control system based on a PID control system. Individual chapters are dedicated to the initial design of the UAV, wing construction, main rotor, "virtual swashplate" software solution, control system, and finally, testing and evaluation of the constructed UAV. The paper provides a comprehensive overview of the design, construction, and testing process of a VTOL UAV, focusing on the use of software control and innovative technological solutions.
