Hexacopter Design and Analysis

What is it about?

Abstract: Within the work, on the basis of previously obtained real components, the design, dimensioning and analysis of hexacopters were performed. The 3D virtual model was developed using the SolidWorks software package, and then the necessary stress analysis by the finite element method was performed. After 3D modeling, an analytical load calculation was performed on the hexacopter landing and take-off mechanism. During the calculation, real loads were used during the landing and take-off of the hexacopter. After the analytical calculation, a numerical analysis was performed using the finite element method, where the mechanisms for landing and taking off hexacopters were observed separately. In FEM analysis, the principal stresses at characteristic places were observed, as well as displacements or deformations on the take - off mechanism. After that, a comparison of analytical calculation and numerical (FEM) analysis of the hexacopter structure was performed. On that occasion, a good match between the results of these two methodswas established, which verified the numerical method used.
