Effect of Bird Yaw/Pitch Angles on Soft Impact Damage of a Fan Assembly by Junjie Li, Yunfeng Lou, Gaoyuan Yu, Tong Li, Xianlong Jin

“…Results show that attitude angles of the bird produce a significant impact on the effect of the bird strike on rotating blades and would increase the possibility of blade failures, especially for the yaw angle of -45° and the pitch angle of −60°. It is invaluable for commercial airlines and engine manufactures to provide safe flight and landing by adopting the real bird model with critical yaw and pitch angles in the design for resistance to bird ingestion.…”
