“…Concrete structures that are very prone to water penetration, as well as metallic structures, become sensitive to corrosion on coming in contact with water [8]. Aeroplanes, helicopters, all ground transports, and concrete structures are subjected to serious erosion problems [9,10].…”

Improvement of corrosion resistance is a main challenge in surface and corrosion engineering. Water is a main part of corrosion mechanism, and the omission of this part will be helpful. "y mimicking from nature, superhydrophobicity is a helpful method to decrease corrosion and water presence on the surface. Superhydrophobic surface and coating is a new type of coating that extension in recent decade and increase application of this area every day. These type of coatings are using on widespread of applications such as solar panels, displays, windows, paints and fabrics to obtain water-proof, anticorrosive, self-cleaning and stain-resistant surfaces. Many different studies have been reported to produce superhydrophobic surfaces from many diverse materials polymers, metals and other inorganic materials, composites, textiles, paper . In this chapter, recent developments in the application of superhydrophobic coatings for corrosion protection of aluminum and copper alloys will be discussed. This chapter includes new production methods, theoretical works, and the limitations of superhydrophobic coatings.

“…low speed stability and control, as described in [2][3][4], were considered during the design process. Further analysis was done by Mckinney [5] on tiltwing configurations regarding their performance and control aspects. Especially the horizontal control during hovering and transition, which was also analyzed by [6][7][8], proved difficult.…”

Within the EU and North Rhine-Westphalia funded research project AVIGLE, the Institute of Flight System Dynamics develops a multi functional flight platform in a tiltwing configuration. The different mission requirements as well as the specific requirements due to the tiltwing configuration influence the design process. Within each specification step, the impact on horizontal and vertical flight, including transition states in between has to be considered. Beside numerical flow analysis, extensive wind tunnel tests were conducted to confirm the calculated coefficients and derivatives and to gain data needed to build a six degrees of freedom simulation for development of controlling strategies in transition. Particular emphasis was put on the influence of the propeller induced slipstream on the aerodynamic coefficients and the stability analysis during transition phases between horizontal and vertical flight.
