Two Days Workshop  on UAV systems: Fundamentals, Modelling and Simulation with Hands-on Sessions on Multirotor

Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham Coimbatore

About the workshop

The Department of Aerospace Engineering at Amrita School of Engineering, Coimbatore, is organizing a Two-day workshop with Hands-on Sessions on the state of the Art Methadology for Multirotor Modeling and Simulation. In this workshop, participants will gain an in-depth understanding of the field of multirotor aerial vehicles by assimilating the essentials of theoretical modeling and participating simulation sessions.

The rapid evolution of multirotor technology has widened the scope of drone applications across various industries. Today, multirotor unmanned aerial vehicles are employed in logistics, agriculture, construction evaluation, public safety, media, environmental obser- vation and many more areas.

  • This growth necessitates the development of indigenous flight simula- tors for autonomous and piloted operations based on multirotor flight dynamics
  • The nation’s “Aatma Nirbhar Bharat” mission promotes indigenous technology, increasing the need for trained personnel with the technical knowledge and skills to construct aerial vehicle simulators
  • The workshop is focused on providing perspective on modeling, simula- tion, and the fundamentals of flight dynamics & control of multirotor drones along with hands-on sessions

In this workshop, you will:

  • Learn the fundamentals of multirotr design methodology
  • Acquire indepth knowledge of multirotor flight dynamics and control
  • Get trained on multirotor modeling and simulation using Simulink
  • Gain insight into the practices and priorities of the UAV industry
