To upgrade aerial vehicle of Atha Mapper 2150 capable of vertical take-off and landing capability, it needs to be integrated to the tricopter vehicle. In this study the tricopter frame structure was designed based on the Atha Mapper 2150 fixed wing vehicle. This study began with a calculation process to determine the dimensions of the tricopter.. Next, the process of building four tricopter concept designs with variations of the shape of the frame and the cross section of the arm. The four concept designs are selected using a decision matrix. Based on the values in decision matrix table, the design concept I (Y configuration and rectangular arm cross section) was the best design, because it has the highest weighting value. The selected design was then simulated for its structural strength in Ansys software by giving a load of thrust to the three arms of the tricopter frame. In the middle of frame is given a boundary condition in the form of hinges. From the static simulation results of the tricopter frame structure, the maximum stress value was 54,126 MPa, which occurred on the M3 arm. The greatest total deformation also occurred in the M3 arm with a value of 10,335 mm. The safety factor value of tricopter frame structure was 8.77. This shows the tricopter frame structure with the main material in the form of carbon fiber, acrylic and PLA meets the required safety criteria.

t was theoretically and experimentally proved that High Temperature Superconducting (HTS) Maglev had huge potential employment in rail transportation and high speed launch system. This had attracted great research interests in practical engineering. The optimization design was one of the most important works in the application of the HTS Maglev. As the NdFeB permanent magnet and HTS materials prices increased constantly, the design optimization of the permanent guideway (PMG) of HTS maglev became one of the indispensable works to decrease the cost of the application. This paper first reviewed four types of PMGs used by the HTS Maglev, then disucssed their structures and magnetic fields. Finally, the optimization methods of these four PMGs were compared. It was suggested that with better optimization methods, the levitation performance within a limit cost got better. That would be helpful to the future numerical optimization of the PMG of the HTS maglev.
