Understanding the flight physics is paramount for success of every aircraft design. Currently, there are 750+ concepts of advance air mobility (AAM) aircraft, but none of them has been deployed into service yet. This is due to the lack of flight physics knowledge among AAM community, hence resulting in continuous postponement of their deployment.The University of Nottingham (UoN) will create and deliver an advanced course on flight physics, i.e. flight dynamics and flight performance, of AAM aircraft to address the above challenge. The course will be primarily delivered as an advanced undergraduate course for the Aerospace engineering students at UoN. It will also be delivered as a continuous professional development (CPD) course for industry and interested stakeholders.The course will consist of lectures, seminars and flight simulator sessions, and will be based on modelling electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft. The outstanding component of the course will be piloted simulation trials of the eVTOL aircraft in the UoN Alsim 250 flight simulator. This activity will provide a sense of reality and a better understanding of how various modifications to an eVTOL aircraft impact pilot perception and aircraft performance.The team of experienced UoN academics will develop a set of lectures that will cover: 1) flight physics of eVTOL aircraft, 2) impact of various novel systems, e.g. electric propulsion, on flying and handling qualities (pilot perception) of eVTOL aircraft, and 3) modelling and simulation techniques enabling course participants to create and/or adjust numerical eVTOL models to their needs. Each lecture will be supported by a practical seminar, built around a case study using a problem-based learning. Finally, the flight simulator sessions will provide experiential learning by allowing course participants to pilot eVTOL aircraft in the flight simulator. This learning cycle will ensure the best learning experience for each participant. As part of the project, the MATLAB/Simulink-based eVTOL aircraft model will be programmed into the flight simulator. Primarily this will supplement the course. This will also create a state-of-the-art eVTOL research and simulation platform in the UK that will further enhance UoN's flight-related research activities, as well as developing the skills pipeline and industry support in the critical field of flight physics.

了解飞行物理对于每一架飞机的成功设计都是至关重要的。目前，先进空中机动性(AAM)飞机有750多个概念，但还没有一个投入使用。这是由于AAM社区缺乏飞行物理知识，导致其部署不断推迟。诺丁汉大学(UON)将开设并提供AAM飞机的飞行物理高级课程，即飞行动力学和飞行性能，以应对上述挑战。该课程将主要作为UON航空航天工程专业的高级本科生课程。它还将作为面向工业界和感兴趣的利益相关者的持续专业发展(CPD)课程。该课程将包括讲座、研讨会和飞行模拟器课程，并将基于电动垂直起降(EVTOL)飞机的模型。课程的突出部分将是在UON Alsim 250飞行模拟器上对eVTOL飞机进行的飞行员模拟试验。这项活动将提供一种现实的感觉，并更好地了解对eVTOL飞机的各种改装如何影响飞行员的感知和飞机的性能。经验丰富的东京大学学者团队将开发一系列讲座，内容包括：1)eVTOL飞机的飞行物理；2)各种新型系统，如电力推进，对eVTOL飞机的飞行和操纵品质(飞行员感知)的影响；以及3)使课程参与者能够根据需要创建和/或调整数值eVTOL模型的建模和仿真技术。每堂课将由一个实践研讨会提供支持，该研讨会以案例研究为基础，采用基于问题的学习方法。最后，飞行模拟器课程将通过允许课程参与者在飞行模拟器中驾驶eVTOL飞机来提供体验式学习。这个学习周期将确保为每个参与者提供最佳的学习体验。作为该项目的一部分，基于MATLAB/Simulink的eVTOL飞机模型将被编程到飞行模拟器中。这主要是对课程的补充。这还将在英国创建一个最先进的eVTOL研究和仿真平台，进一步加强UON与飞行相关的研究活动，以及发展飞行物理关键领域的技能管道和行业支持。
