Abstract : The swash plate is a critical component responsible for translating pilot inputs into complex rotor blade motions, enabling precise control over the helicopter's flight dynamics. However, traditional swash plate designs often face challenges related to complexity, weight, friction, and maintenance requirements. This project report focuses on the design, optimization, and enhancement of swash plate mechanisms utilized in helicopter rotor systems. The outcome of this project is expected to yield a swash plate mechanism that offers good performance, reliability, and ease of maintenance. The advancements achieved through this research will contribute to the overall efficiency and safety of helicopter rotor systems, thereby benefiting a wide range of applications including transportation, search and rescue, and military operations.
