Abstract

Naglim razvojem bespilotnih letjelica, iste su pronašle široku primjenu u raznim područjima ljudske djelatnosti. Osim za potrebe izviđanja i nadzora, izniman fokus stavljen je na razvoj bespilotnih letjelica namijenjenih za dostavu. Ovisno o objektu transporta, bespilotna letjelica mora zadovoljiti niz zahtjeva usko vezanih uz karakteristike istog. Uzevši u obzir geografski oblik Republike Hrvatske te pokrivenost ruralnih i teško dostupnih područja zdravstvenim ustanovama, diplomskim radom izraditi će se koncept bespilotne letjelice koja će na spomenute lokacije biti u mogućnosti dostaviti medicinske potrepštine. Letjelica mora biti u mogućnosti poletjeti s površinski ograničenog područja i zatim ostvariti veliki dolet odnosno istrajnost te u konačnici sletjeti na površinski ograničeno i reljefno zahtjevno područje. Diplomskim radom kreiran je koncept bespilotne letjelice vertikalnog polijetanja i slijetanja koji će zadovoljiti spomenute uvjete.

Abstract (english)

Due to the rapid development of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), the former have found wide applications in many areas of human activities. Except applications in the field of surveillance and reconnaissance, the major focus has been put on development of delivery UAVs. Depending on the object of transport, UAV has to comply with series of demands which are specific for the transported object. Considering geographical shape of the Republic of Croatia and coverage of rural and hard to reach areas with medical institutions; the aim of this graduate thesis is to develop an UAV concept which will have be able to deliver medical supplies to former destinations. UAV has to be able to take-off from small areas, achieve great range and endurance and finally land on small and geographically challenging area. Concept of the vertical take-off and landing UAV which will fulfil former conditions is created by this graduate thesis.
