Résumé des résultats (Abstract) (Anglais)

Dufour is designing electrical vertical take-off and landing aircraft. They teamed up with the Centre for Aviation at ZHAW to develop a numerical tool for aerodynamic predictions on the behavior of their aircraft. Wind tunnel tests will be carried out to ensure the accuracy of the developed tool.
