A review of advanced rotor researchThis paper reviews advanced-rotor concepts including the advancing blade concept, the circulation control rotor, the X-wing rotor, the variable diameter rotor, the hingeless tilt rotor, the bearingless main rotor, the composite structures rotor, the variable geometry rotor, the multicyclic controllable pitch rotor, the multicyclic controllable twist rotor, and the live twist rotor. The rotor concepts are discussed in terms of performance (cruise speed, and lift/drag ratio) and dynamic loads and vibration.
