Important announcement

Dear visitor,

Please note that this OpenCourseWare platform will be replaced at the end of 2026 by a new platform (under the same url ocw.tudelft.nl).

Courses and their contents that are currently available the platform will partly be migrated. URL’s for this content will change and content might be unavailable for some time. In addition, some courses will not be available anymore.

If you are linking to specific courses on this platform (for instance for your students), please take timely measures to avoid problems with access. Possible actions are:

  • Download the materials to your local platform (laptop, server)
  • For educators only (including TU Delft lecturers): Contact us at ocw@tudelft.nl and inform us what course you are using in what context (institute, program, period of use, number of students). We will research (in collaboration with the authors of the course) and decide if we will migrate the course, and if yes, can supply you with a new url.

Thank you.

4.1.2 Lecture 4B: The Flying V

Course subject(s) Module 4: Novel Aircraft Design

Lecture 4B: The Flying V

In the last lecture, Maurice Hoogreef mentioned the Flying V, a novel aircraft design that the Faculty of Aerospace Engineering is actively researching. In this lecture, Dr. Roelof Vos will dive deeper into the most energy intensive phase during flight and how novel aircraft designs can reduce the energy requirement during this phase.

Additionally, Dr. Vos will dive deeper into the Flying V and how the design of this aircraft relates back to the discussed design criteria.
