Thesis Statement:  The propulsion system of the V-22 Osprey tiltrotor can accommodate a wider range of functions compared to the Harrier’s turbofan engine. Support 1: The V-22 Osprey is more suitable for missions, tasks or special operations as it can travel long range, hover, land and take-off vertically and horizontally unlike Harrier. Support 2: The V-22 Osprey can carry heavier payloads while performing vertical landings, such as transporting troops, equipment and supplies. Counterargument: The cost and maintenance are the disadvantages of the aircraft. Conclusion: V-22 Osprey can participate and both combat and non-combat missions while Harriers only can participate in combat operations. The V-22 Osprey VTOL (Vertical Take-off and Landing) propulsion system is one of the important features of the V-22 Osprey aircraft (Arturo., 2023). The ground-breaking construction blends features of helicopter and fixed-wing aircraft to provide a remarkable versatility. Derived from (Hush Ki...

The Osprey VTOL (Vertical Take-off and Landing) propulsion system is an important feature of the V-22 Osprey aircraft. The ground-breaking construction blends features of helicopter and fixed-wing aircraft to provide a remarkable versatility. The Osprey has rotors at the tip of its wings that are changeable between vertical and horizontal positions. It can take-off, land and hover like a helicopter while in vertical mode. In contrast to Harrier turbofan engines, due to the weight penalty that results the engine to be designed for vertical lift. During take-off or landing vertically, the Osprey’s rotors are shifted upward allowing them to produce lift similar to helicopter’s rotor blades. While during a forward flight, the Osprey tilts its rotors and redirect thrust to propel forward which produces high lift and keeps the fuselage horizontal. This eliminates the use of runways and makes it suitable for small locations and on ships. It operates similarly like a standard fixed-wing aircr...

Luqman was looking through reddit and saw a video about Ukraine and Russia war using VTOL (Vertical Take-off and Landing). The team source up to 5 sources on Google. The team used ChatGPT to understand more about features of VTOL propulsion system. Read the articles and used information to synthesize our summary.

 

Subject: Self introduction  Dear Professor Brad Blackstone, I am Weili, a student in your “critical thinking and communicating” module, and I am in year 1 of mechanical engineering at Singapore Institute of Technology. In 2021, I graduated from Singapore Polytechnic with a Diploma in marine engineering. I interned at Wilsafe Private Limited as a cadet engineer, and this expanded my viewpoint of the experiences and challenges faced by individuals in the workforce. I learned valuable skills in time management, organization, and the importance of precise and accurate measurements. When I was young, I always wondered how cars move, how airplanes fly, and how ships sail. I began to have an interest in engineering when I started with fixing, repairing, or installing furniture. Throughout the years from secondary school until the present, I have helped my parents repair furniture, dismantle electronic products to better understand how they work, and install curtains with precise measureme...
