Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) design, and in particular to a UAV propeller reliability modeling method, system, medium and program product. Background Art
[0002] With the widespread deployment of multi-rotor drones in scenarios such as urban delivery, inspection and monitoring, and emergency response, their structural complexity and uncertain operating environments are increasingly demanding the reliability of core components. Under the high-intensity, multi-environment, and multi-mission operating conditions, the reliability of the power system has become a bottleneck limiting the industry's large-scale application and expansion into high-end applications. The power system typically consists of propellers (rotors), brushless motors, electronic speed controllers (ESCs), batteries, and control algorithms. The rotors, in particular, are both the direct component for generating lift and the point of interaction for aerodynamic loads, structural vibration, and external disturbances. Numerous accident statistics show that rotor structural failure, dynamic imbalance, aeroelastic coupling, and the resulting insufficient thrust or excessive airframe vibration are among the primary causes of drone loss of control and crashes.
[0003] Traditionally, blade geometry (diameter, pitch, aspect ratio, etc.) has been used as independent variables, with the Betz criterion, blade element momentum theory (BEMT), or CFD iterative calculations used to derive thrust-torque curves. Safety margins are then verified during the prototype phase through static and fatigue testing. This process has a long design cycle and high iteration costs. More importantly, it mitigates system-level interactions with the propeller (such as current limiting with electronically controlled current controllers, flight control rate adjustment, and airframe attitude disturbances). This approach only provides static strength or lifespan estimates for isolated components, failing to reflect real-time reliability changes across the entire aircraft under multiple operating conditions.
[0004] Furthermore, engineering practice often uses statistical manuals such as FMEA / FMECA, Fault Tree Analysis (FTA), or MIL-HDBK-217 to derive propeller failure rates; or employs empirical safety factors of 1.5–2.0 to account for load uncertainty. However, these methods fail to fully quantify the coupling effects between thrust, torque, and speed, and lack a comprehensive assessment of model errors and environmental disturbances (temperature, air pressure, and air shear). The results are often overly conservative or underestimate risks, making them difficult to sustain the rapid pace of drone product updates.
[0005] Although there have been studies in recent years that combine finite element analysis, CFD, hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing of propellers with digital twins to perform multi-physics field simulation of material fatigue and aerodynamic loads, most platforms focus on post-processing visualization or online fault diagnosis, and lack a unified modeling language and automatic parameter constraint mechanism for the early stages of design; within the system engineering dimension, the data interfaces between different simulation tools often rely on manual script maintenance, making it difficult to achieve end-to-end model consistency.
[0006] Since its inception, Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) has been vigorously promoted by organizations such as NASA, INCOSE, and Dassault. Its core concept is to use digital models throughout the entire system lifecycle, unifying requirements, structure, behavior, parameters, constraints, and verification activities, while ensuring information consistency within a single digital thread (Single Source of Truth). MBSE provides a new paradigm for addressing the challenges of UAV power system reliability assessment, such as complex coupling, diverse mechanisms, dispersed data, and fragmented models. However, the MBSE framework alone is insufficient to directly output reliability metrics; further integration of uncertainty modeling and confidence into the model is necessary. MBSE is gaining increasing attention within the domestic academic community, with numerous universities and research institutes developing single-machine MBSE frameworks and conducting pilot projects in areas such as avionics, engine control, and overall UAV systems.
[0007] A Chinese invention patent application (publication number: CN114781183 A, publication date: July 22, 2022) proposes a MBSE-based approach to modeling perception systems from logical models to physical simulation models, and constructs system reliability metrics using state transition and parameter models. However, this approach primarily focuses on intelligent perception systems and does not yet address the modeling requirements of power actuators with well-defined mechanical output characteristics (such as thrust, torque, and speed), such as drone propellers. Furthermore, a Chinese invention patent application (publication number: CN116776656 A, publication date: September 19, 2023) points out that traditional approaches often focus on a single component or function, making it difficult to systematically assess the reliability transfer and interactive failure paths between different functions in unmanned systems. Furthermore, they fail to accurately characterize the impact of each module on reliability within the "perception-decision-execution" chain. In addition, by constructing a multi-layer hypernetwork and Petri net, the interaction relationship between the perception, collaboration and driving layers is formally modeled, and reliability measurement indicators of the functional dimension are defined. However, this method focuses more on the task completion capability evaluation of complex unmanned systems, does not introduce a physical parameter margin model based on statistical distribution characteristics, and does not consider the quantitative impact of model errors on reliability results. Summary of the Invention
[0008] To address the aforementioned technical issues, the present invention aims to provide a method for modeling assured reliability of UAV propellers based on MBSE. This method embeds assured reliability theory into the system structure model as constraints, proposing a unified modeling framework applicable to a wide range of physical systems. This method not only reflects the dynamic coupling between performance parameters and system structure but also enables the visualization of system reliability characteristics under multiple operating conditions. Through the synergistic effect of model hierarchy, parameter dependency, and constraint propagation mechanisms, the applicability and engineering feasibility of assured reliability theory in MBSE scenarios are further verified, demonstrating the scientific, universal, and rigorous nature of this methodology.

This demonstrates the precise modeling and expression of assured reliability theory within a systems engineering framework for research objects like drone propellers, which possess quantifiable physical performance parameters (such as thrust, torque, and speed).

Improved reliability quantification accuracy: Establishing the confidence reliability R by combining the margin M with the standard normal cumulative distribution function Φ MB , for the first time considering the statistical fluctuation variance σ m ² and model error variance σ e Compared to methods using only empirical safety factors, the mean square error of reliability assessment is reduced by approximately 28%. The coupled setting of equipment-level failure thresholds and mission-level thrust requirements can precisely locate failure risk areas and avoid redundant weight caused by overly conservative designs.
[0052] 3. Rapid simulation and decision support for multiple working conditions: Built-in Monte Carlo simulation and weight adaptive algorithm can output margin distribution curve within 3 seconds under 1000 random working condition simulations, providing real-time and callable reliability boundary for the closed-loop design of flight control algorithm. MB When the temperature falls below the set threshold, a maintenance warning instruction can be immediately sent to the upper flight control system, providing a quantitative basis for preventive maintenance decisions.
[0053] In summary, the present invention establishes a new paradigm for propeller reliability design at the system engineering level, achieving a technological breakthrough in high-precision quantification, rapid iteration, and real-time monitoring, significantly improving the safety, economy, and engineering development efficiency of UAV power systems.

[0063] The following is a clear and complete description of the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field based on the embodiments of the present invention without making any creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0064] Selected research units
[0065] A rotary-wing UAV system typically consists of a power module, networking and communication module, flight control module, core computing module, and perception module. The power system, consisting of batteries, electronic speed controllers (ESCs), motors, and propellers, receives and executes control commands from the flight control module to achieve flight maneuvers.
[0066] like Figure 1 As shown, the research object of the present invention is the DJI-1045 self-locking propeller, which is an optimized design of a multi-rotor platform with a specification of 10 × 4.5 inches (1045). It adopts a spline-type self-locking fastening structure, which can achieve tool-free quick assembly and disassembly.
[0067] 2. UAV system modeling
[0068] 2.1 Demand Analysis Modeling
[0069] As shown in Table 1, a demand analysis model is constructed based on the DJI-1045 UAV's rotor design parameters, material requirements, rotation attitude control, structural characteristics and other requirements.
[0070] Table 1 Propeller demand analysis table
[0071]
[0072] 2.2 System Context
[0073] In order to reasonably construct the propeller reliability model, such as Figure 2 、 Figure 3 As shown, it is necessary to reasonably set the logical interactions between each system level and the interaction between the propeller and each system level and other components in the power system to draw a reasonable system context.
[0074] 2.3 Use Cases
[0075] This paper focuses on a key use case in drone propulsion systems: dynamic adjustment of flight attitude by adjusting propeller thrust and angular velocity. This use case is the core execution link in the flight control closed loop, directly related to flight stability and mission responsiveness.
[0076] 2.4 Activity Diagram
[0077] like Figure 5 、 Figure 6 As shown, the present invention constructs an activity logic diagram of the propeller attitude change in the power module at the system level and an activity logic diagram of the propeller execution attitude change at the power module subsystem level.
[0078] 2.5 System Port Definition
[0079] The definition of system ports is the key mechanism to achieve dynamic coupling between UAV systems and is of great significance for modeling the correlation between system elements. Figure 7 As shown, this invention uses SysML's Block Definition Diagram (BDD) and Internal Block Diagram (IBD) to achieve structured integration and relationship modeling of various drone system modules. The system components are no longer isolated functional units, but instead form a highly coupled, collaborative, integrated system.
[0080] During the modeling process, changes in system- and subsystem-level input variables are no longer a single module's response. Instead, through the establishment of ports and connections, all system modules achieve real-time linkage and coordinated responses. This design approach embodies the "integration-centric" philosophy of Model-Driven Systems Engineering (MBSE) and effectively supports the simulation and verification of the dynamic behavior of complex systems.
[0081] 3. Margin equation construction
[0082] 3.1 Performance parameter selection
[0083] Based on the physical experimental data of DJI-1045 self-locking propeller, the present invention establishes a dynamic fitting model for thrust and torque response. As the independent variable, the changing law of thrust and torque is fitted.
[0084] Propeller aerodynamic theory shows that when the inlet velocity and aerodynamic load are constant, the thrust F, torque τ and the square of the speed are is directly proportional, that is Torque Also approximately follows The law of.
[0085] Therefore, the present invention uses thrust (F), torque (τ) and speed square ( ) as the core modeling parameters, the system characterizes the aerodynamic performance and power response law of this type of propeller under typical working conditions, and establishes a basic mathematical model suitable for aerodynamic modeling and simulation optimization of rotorcraft, providing theoretical support for related flight control algorithms and system design.
[0086] 3.2 Performance Function Construction
[0087] P n It means that the propeller is rotated at different speeds The key performance indicators below are mapped to functions of mathematical expressions. Corresponding performance parameters.
[0088] For the DJI-1045 model, we constructed the following based on aerodynamic theory and experimental data:

[0091] (2) Torque function:
[0092] ,
[0093] (3) Speed function:
[0094] 。
[0095] Based on the physical experimental data, the independent variable speed is first Perform a normal distribution fit and determine its mean μ = 794.448 and standard deviation σ = 339.283. These distribution parameters will serve as the statistical limits for the normal distribution input of related variables in subsequent parameter diagrams. Figure 7 The detailed calculation process is shown in Figure 2. The experimental speed data was fitted to a normal distribution using the Box-Cox method, eliminating outliers. The conversion coefficient was 0.341, resulting in a mean of μ = 794.448 and a standard deviation of σ = 339.283.
[0096] Furthermore, by performing linear fitting on the experimental data, the coefficient C that conforms to the formula expression is calculated. F =1.99, C τ =3.5E-5. Figure 8 、 Figure 9 As shown in the figure, the detailed calculation process is as follows: by sorting out the square data of speed and thrust and torque data, and using the linear fitting method, we can get two constant coefficients C F =1.99 and C τ =3.5E-5.
[0097] The experimental data are shown in Table 2.
[0098]
[0099] 3.3 Fault Threshold Setting
[0100] As shown in Table 3, a corresponding fault threshold is set for each performance parameter. The threshold is based on mission requirements or design specifications and is determined by the minimum safe lift, minimum torque starting value, and minimum energy efficiency, respectively.
[0101]

[0112] The definition equation in this step eliminates the influence of the unit of the parameter itself and realizes the dimensionless unified measurement between parameters of different dimensions. F =0.3109>0,m τ =0.0282>0,m ω =0.6824>0.
[0113] Detailed calculation process: By defining the constraint formula, inputting the value of the square of the speed, and using Monte Carlo simulation to calculate 1000 times to obtain the best value.
[0114] Weight Reflects the importance of different performance parameters to the overall performance margin of the system, and the weights meet the normalization conditions:
[0115] ,
[0116] Calculated: w F =0.3637,w τ =0.3589,w ω =0.2774.
[0117] Detailed calculation process:

[0136] To sum n indicators;
[0137] Arrange and input all the calculated data to get the result.
[0138] 2) Model error variance This value reflects the structural simplification, parameter uncertainty, and modeling error of the MBSE model. Expert experience is used to assess the reliability of the model to avoid overoptimism, with a value of 0.04 being used here because the drone propeller is a simple physical entity.
[0139] The final calculation result is: m =0.3247,σ e ≈0.04.
[0140] 4. Parametric Graphs for Simultaneous Equations
[0141] In the third step of modeling, all defined performance equations are assigned a generalization and binding relationship with the propeller module in the IBD diagram in the form of a constraint block, thereby achieving dynamic integration of the performance analysis model and system components in the MagicDraw tool.
[0142] This method eliminates the need to rebuild a new system model when faced with different operating conditions or changing performance parameters. Simply modify the parameter values, and the model will automatically reflect the dynamic response of each system component. Furthermore, changes to any parameter value can be globally mapped to the relevant constraint expressions through a binding mechanism, ensuring real-time linkage and dynamic coupling between modules within the system. This modeling approach not only significantly improves modeling efficiency and system reusability, but also effectively supports model consistency management and system-level performance verification under multiple performance conditions.
