Project Proposed By Ali Mazahir Qamari B.S II 1999 Numerical Analysis & Computing Department Of Computer Science University of Karachi-Pakistan Dated: October 21, 1999 Despite the forbidding mystique around the act (and word) of "writing", it is not a skill one is born with . People learn how to write, just as they learn how to read, to type, and to operate computers. Ones get better at it the more one writes. I too has obtained the same path and this was my first step towards proposing a real time project for implementation. I am thankful and grateful to Almighty Allah the omnipotent and omnipresent who has endowed us with knowledge in the patience and encourage in the accomplishment of my task.The idea and reference of the project proposal is taken from the NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) researchers educator guide. The web addresses are: http://quest.arc.nasa.gov/ltc/ http://www.nasa.govThis Project Proposal can be implemented in aviation, aerodynamics, automobile industry, train and shipping industry. Last but not the least, special thanks to my course supervisor who has endowed me with his knowledge. Sir Dr. Syed Arif Kamal Associate Professor Department of Mathematics Univerisity Of Karachi-Pakistan http://www.drakamal.8m.comBack ground The Shapes of Flight Simulation, involves students in the interaction between mathematics, science and technology as they look at the process of airplane design. NASA researchers show students & engineers the process and tools to research, develop, test and evaluate airplane design. We can observe how the engineering process compares to the scientific method. The activity involved in organizing, comparing and interpreting data. We have to investigate the glide ratio for a Prototype Model of an Airplane models and determine which glide ratio of Airplane is best beneficial for flight planes. Guisness Book of World Record was established in the 1980s by high school students from the Hampton, Virgina for making big paper plane for experimentation. ProblemEvery year countries spend their high cost budget over air plane machinerys including defense and travelling purpose. Many projects fail due to non-analysis of the real time problems. Big aviation such as NASA performs prototype modeling and then implements it. Feasibility Teachers and researchers adopt this method to guide their students the real scientific engineering methods. Benefits A vast revenue is save and researchers, teachers and students can learn the methods of scientific study, occurrence in nature and can program it for any aviation corporation. Budget Paper planes, measuring sticks, weighing machine, chalks cost about Rs 100/- Risk Factors
Experiment Material
Terms & Ratios Glide Ratio: The horizontal distance that the airplane will travel from a given altitude in the absence of power and wind. Glide Ratio = horizontal Distance Flown/ Change in Altitude Weight Paper1=10 grams i.e. 0.010 kilogramWeight Paper2=04 grams i.e. 0.004 kilogram Development & Design There are four stages in the development of an aircraft, they are
Methodology Glide different plane shapes with constant force and record their observation in a chart than predict the nature and behavior of the model. After the test run we than implement it for simulation for real time projects.
Test Run The launching of the model airplanes from a constant height and with a consistent force for each trial in the experiment is necessary. For recording correct data I have taken three observations for each test flights and similar paper weight. Data Collection & AnalysisData from each flight should be collected and recorded on to the Data Sheet. I have measure the distance traveled by the model from the launching point to where the model first hit the ground. Calculate mean and median of the collected data. Then compute the glide ratio for each of the recorded observation. Name Of Airplane Model: Egret Weight Paper1=10 grams i.e. 0.010 kilogram
