Abstract

With the increasing global demand and expanding application fields of drones, the safety and durability of drones during flight has become particularly important in commercial competition. This study focuses on designing a protective shield specifically tailored for both commercial and personal drone use. So that the drone is not prevented from continuing to operate due to unexpected circumstances such as collisions or crashes. Utilizing a multidisciplinary approach, e.g., mechanics of materials, fluid dynamics, the structure of the protective shield is optimized through 3D modeling software (Creo) and simulated using Ansys to analyze stress distribution under various impact scenarios.to determine the difference between damage to a drone after a collision with the ground with and without a protective shield. Additionally, the design emphasizes the shield’s detachability and modularity, facilitating maintenance and upgrades, and allowing for quick replacement to meet different mission requirements. And experimentally confirmed that the UAV protective cover has a significant effect on the protection of various parts of the UAV at a certain altitude. It is finally concluded that through the fine design of materials and structure, the protective cover can not only effectively mitigate the damage to the core components of the UAV from external impacts, but also improve the survivability of the UAV in harsh environments. Experiments and field tests show that the protective cover exhibits superior protection performance in a variety of scenarios, and has less impact on the flight performance and stability of the UAV.
