The effect of tail sweep angle to the aerodynamics and stability of a blended wing body aircraft (baseline V) / Mohamad Zulfazli Arief Abd Latif

Blended wing body (BWB) aircraft is theoretically designed based on the combination of conventional aircraft and flying wing which is likely to be the future concept of an aircraft. Some of the studies claim that BWB aircraft has higher lift to drag ratio compared to the conventional aircraft. Howev...
