“…UAVs, such as target drones, unmanned reconnaissance aircraft, and multi-purpose drones, have undergone a number of development phases since the world's first UAV was created in the UK in 1917 according to Fan et al, [31]. The earliest systems were created as long-range armament (the precursors to modern cruise missiles) in weapons like the US Navy's 1917 "aerial torpedo," the US Army's 1918 "Kettering bug," and the British Army's 1914 "aerial target" [2]. Figure 2 shows an airborne target, an aerial torpedo, Kettering, and a larynx.…”

“…According to Lambey and Prasad [20], aviation legislative bodies have outlined regulations and restrictions on the use of national airspace in order to safeguard the general population and other airspace users. According to Bange et al, [2], there are currently fewer UAVs in civilian use than in military use as a result of more challenges in their introduction to the civilian market. The necessity for regulation is becoming more widely recognized a year later, according to Lee et al, [27], as commercial and recreational use of UAVs increases.…”

“…Due to their improved stability and endurance in different operations, UAVs have become an accessible instrument for data collection, benefiting a variety of stakeholders and actors, including governmental agencies, commercial operators, scientific organizations, and people [1]. They allow mapping at temporal and spatial scales that were previously impossible with conventional remote sensing platforms [2,3]. There are many civil domains covered by the wide range of applications, including high-resolution surface reconstruction, object detection and tracking, documentation of cultural heritage, agriculture, environmental monitoring, disaster management, delivery of services, wildlife observation, and search and rescue operations [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12].…”

“…Alladi et al, [17] provided a comprehensive overview of UAV technology, including classifications based on several criteria and operational rules. A review of the design, development, and deployment of UAVs was presented by Bange et al, [2]. Zhang et al, [18] thoroughly examine the development and use of UAVs in Chinese agriculture while describing their technological and payload capabilities, benefits, and drawbacks.…”

Due to their versatility, which is a result of technological advancements, and their capacity to carry out various civilian tasks safely and effectively, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have revolutionized applied sciences and engineering. However, UAV technological advancements in applied sciences and engineering have not been fully leveraged. This paper highlights UAV technology in the realm of applied sciences and engineering. The review covers the historical advancement, classification, benefits, and drawbacks of UAV technology applied to science and engineering. The paper begins with a summary of the advancements, then moves on to a recent historical development and an explanation of the UAV categorization criteria. The review then discusses UAV technology's advantages and drawbacks in applied science and engineering. After WWII, UAVs became increasingly versatile and advanced. Their categories follow numerous criteria. UAVs have numerous applications in applied science and engineering. Regulations stimulate UAV innovation and applications while altering them. The paper concludes by offering a comprehensive overview of UAV technology and its uses in applied sciences and engineering. Future UAV applications are likely to be much more creative and significant as the technology develops and advances.

This study aims to develop a concept of a passive volumetric flow control system for gas sampling applications onboard fixed-wing UAS based on the pressure field around airfoils. The passive flow control system utilizes the aerodynamics of a UAS to create a vacuum pump effect that ensures constant gas sampling, which can be used to facilitate airborne aerosol and gas measurements. The pump effect is achieved by short-circuiting the pressure field’s minima and maxima points around an airfoil through pipes and 3D printed structures that could function both as a pump system and a gas measurement chamber. The design of this structurally integrated functionality brings many advantages for scientific applications, especially onboard small research UAS, which would dispense entirely with complex active pump systems, thus reducing weight and ensuring gas sampling at a constant volumetric flow rate independent of altitude and atmospheric variance. In favor of developing further applications, this paper outlines the development steps of the passive pump concept starting from the theory and numerical modeling of the effect to the implementation on board a fixed-wing UAS. Finally, possible improvements based on numerical models and flight measurements are discussed.
