    Analýza aerodynamických riešení konštrukcie UAV
    (University of Žilina, 2025) Dubchenko, Oleksii; Bugaj, Martin
    This bachelor thesis deals with the research and analysis of aerodynamic characteristics of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). For the purpose of analysis, 3D models of aircraft with conventional tailplane and V-shaped tailplane were created. Then, airflow simulation was performed using CFD, where the model with conventional tailplane had an asymmetric wing profile, while the other model had a symmetric wing profile. The aim of the analysis was to compare the aerodynamic characteristics of the models, their lift to drag (L/D) ratio and the character of the airflow around the structure. The experiments showed that the model with a conventional tail achieved a better L/D ratio than the model with a V shaped tail. Although the V-tail configuration usually reduces drag, it did not yield significant improvement in this simulation. These results may have been influenced by the wing airfoils used, as asymmetric airfoils produce more lift at low angles of attack and low airspeeds. Consequently, another experiment was performed in which a conventional tail was applied to the V-tail model. This resulted in a worse L/D ratio compared to the original configuration. The obtained results suggest potential opportunities for optimization of UAV designs to increase their aerodynamic efficiency in the future.

    Návrh riešenia riadenia skupiny UAV
    (University of Žilina, 2024) Gúcky, Jozef; Bugaj, Martin
    This thesis addresses the challenges and solutions to the management of groups of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). Using a comparative analysis approach, the research evaluates UAV group management methods in terms of their effectiveness under various criteria. The findings suggest that swarm algorithms, inspired by the collective behavior of natural systems, offer a better approach to achieve decentralized, adaptive, and scalable control of UAV groups. This thesis contributes to this field by providing a comprehensive analysis of UAV group management strategies and demonstrating the benefits of swarm algorithms across a variety of criteria. This research has implications for enhancing the capabilities and effectiveness of UAVs in applications such as search and rescue, environmental monitoring, etc.

    New trends in UAV construction
    (University of Žilina, 2023) Iakovlieva, Anastasiia; Bugaj, Martin
    Aviation is one of the fastest developing segments of transport, the development of which did not bypass the construction of unmanned aerial vehicles. The main purpose of this paper is to analyze current trends that may affect the development of unmanned aircrafts in civil aviation. For the purpose of researching new trends in the construction of unmanned aerial vehicles, is needed to define today's state of development and also to divide UAVs by the type. In conclusion, the goal of the article is to define the direction in which the development of construction solutions is currently going and what the potential development in the use of UAVs new trends can bring.
