DESIGN & ANALYSIS OF VERTICAL TAKE-OFF AND LANDING AUTONOMOUS AIR AMBULANCE AIRCRAFT (original) (raw)

As we know that fixed wing unmanned aerial vehicle required long runways for takeoff and landing and also flight time then other. As it is difficult to have longer runway in city area, the need of vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) arises. VTOL aircraft is the type of flight systems which have the ability to take off and land vertically, then transition to horizontal flight, and also allowing an aircraft to cover long distances at high speed and also have advantage to takeoff and land in vertical manner without the need of runway. There are various applications of VTOL such as it can be used as ondemand air mobility, for cargo and package delivery, in healthcare applications, and in emergency services. The new and emerging trends of VTOL are that it can be use as air ambulance. Air Ambulance service is a board term that combines two meaning i.e. air transport with basic emergency medical services which is able to transport injured patients or sick patients to the healthcare facilities and from healthcare facilities. So, in other terms, we can say that it is basically like airlifting patients in case of emergencies. Here, we are focused to develop advance VTOL air ambulance which can be use in any condition and which are capable to carry out its work more precisely and efficiently.
