Drones

Uncrewed aerial vehicles (UAVs, or drones) are an emerging to a range of industrial and societal challenges—from maritime search-and-rescue; to medical logistics; to air defence. Researchers from the Division of Fluid Dynamics, including Assistant Prof. Arion Pons, Associate Professor Carlos Xisto, and researchers Isak Jonsson and Patxi Daniel Rodriguez Acero, are developing new UAV technologies. The division’s activities include research on UAV flight simulation, novel UAV designs, new materials and power sources for UAVs, UAVs for logistics and emergency medicine, as well as support for the Chalmers Aero Team and the interdisciplinary course TRA370: Uncrewed Aerial Vehicles.
