Introduction to Aviation Design 航空设计简介

Sea Otter & Safety Light Control System 海獭式飞机和安全灯控制系统

In this project you will explore the concepts and methods that are used to design and build real airplanes. Through the process of cutting and bending a flat sheet of material you will create new 3-dimensional forms that are much stronger than the original material. You will then design, build, and install all of the electronics needed to create all of the necessary safety light systems that are required on all regulation planes.

本项目将探索用于设计和建造真实飞机的概念和方法。通过切割和弯曲平板材料将创建比原始材料更坚固的新三维形状,然后,通过设计、制做和安装所有必要的电子设备以创建所有管制飞机上所需的必要安全灯系统。

You will  work in groups of 3~4 and each person should take on specific responsibilities.
按照3~4人为一组进行合作。

Roles and Responsibilities 分工&职责

Everyone in the group needs to help each other at all times; however, each person in the group should focus on a particular section of the project based on their individual area of expertise (i.e. someone who is good with working with materials should be your Chief Engineer, etc.). The main responsibilities of each role in the design team is outlined below:

根据个人擅长所在担任特定领域责任人,同时要互帮互助。角色的主要职责如下:

Chief Engineer: Is responsible for overseeing the construction of the aircraft, coordinating the groups activities, selecting the appropriate materials, and ensuring that the correct process and procedures are followed at all times.

总工程师:负责监督飞机的建造,协调小组活动,选择合适的材料,并确保严格遵循正确的流程和程序。

Electrical Engineer: is responsible for overseeing the development of all of the necessary control circuits, ensuring the the appropriate cabling is run through the body of the plane and that the correct components are installed (i.e. the correct colour of light for each of the navigation, beacon, and anti collision lights).

电气工程师:负责监督所有必要控制电路的开发,确保适当的电缆穿过机身,并安装正确的部件(即每个导航灯、信标灯和防撞灯的正确灯光颜色)。

General Contractor: The general contractor is a jack of all trades. They should assist in all aspects of the planes construction as needed. This would include engineering, electronics, and marketing.

总承包人:总承包人是一个多面手,应根据需要协助飞机建设的各个方面,包括工程、电子和营销。

Marketing director: Is primarily responsible for documenting the entire design process. The Marketing director should take photos and videos of the entire design process and create a documentary (a behind the scene video) of their teams process. This video should include time laps videos, music, and interviews.

市场总监:主要负责记录整个设计过程。应拍摄整个设计过程的照片和视频,并制作团队过程的纪录片(幕后花絮)。此视频应包括时间圈视频、音乐和访谈。
