This book was released on 2018-07-08 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A study of flying quality requirements for air breathing aerospacecraft gives special emphasis to the unusual operational requirements and characteristics of these aircraft, including operation at hypersonic speed. The report considers distinguishing characteristics of these vehicles, including dynamic deficiencies and their implications for control. Particular emphasis is given to the interaction of the airframe and propulsion system, and the requirements for dynamic systems integration. Past operational missions are reviewed to define tasks and maneuvers to be considered for this class of aircraft. Areas of special concern with respect to vehicle dynamics and control are identified. Experience with the space shuttle orbiter is reviewed with respect to flight control system mechanization and flight experience in approach and landing flying qualities for the National Aerospace Plane (NASP).

Download or read book Airplane Stability and Control written by Malcolm J. Abzug and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2002-09-23 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the early machines to today's sophisticated aircraft, stability and control have always been crucial considerations. In this second edition, Abzug and Larrabee again forge through the history of aviation technologies to present an informal history of the personalities and the events, the art and the science of airplane stability and control. The book includes never-before-available impressions of those active in the field, from pre-Wright brothers airplane and glider builders through to contemporary aircraft designers. Arranged thematically, the book deals with early developments, research centers, the effects of power on stability and control, the discovery of inertial coupling, the challenge of stealth aerodynamics, a look toward the future, and much more. It is profusely illustrated with photographs and figures, and includes brief biographies of noted stability and control figures along with a core bibliography. Professionals, students, and aviation enthusiasts alike will appreciate this readable history of airplane stability and control.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction to Flight Testing Introduction to Flight Testing Provides an introduction to the basic flight testing methods employed on general aviation aircraft and unmanned aerial vehicles Introduction to Flight Testing provides a concise introduction to the basic flight testing methods employed on general aviation aircraft and unmanned aerial vehicles for courses in aeronautical engineering. There is particular emphasis on the use of modern on-board instruments and inexpensive, off-the-shelf portable devices that make flight testing accessible to nearly any student. This text presents a clear articulation of standard methods for measuring aircraft performance characteristics. Topics covered include aircraft and instruments, digital data acquisition techniques, flight test planning, the standard atmosphere, uncertainty analysis, level flight performance, airspeed calibration, stall, climb and glide, take-off and landing, level turn, static and dynamic longitudinal stability, lateral-directional stability, and flight testing of unmanned aircraft systems. Unique to this book is a detailed discussion of digital data acquisition (DAQ) techniques, which are an integral part of modern flight test programs. This treatment includes discussion of the analog-to-digital conversion, sample rate, aliasing, and filtering. These critical details provide the flight test engineer with the insight needed to understand the capabilities and limitations of digital DAQ. Key features: Provides an introduction to the basic flight testing methods and instrumentation employed on general aviation aircraft and unmanned aerial vehicles. Includes examples of flight testing on general aviation aircraft such as Cirrus, Diamond, and Cessna aircraft, along with unmanned aircraft vehicles. Suitable for courses on Aircraft Flight Test Engineering. Introduction to Flight Testing provides resources and guidance for practitioners in the rapidly-developing field of drone performance flight test and the general aviation flight test community.

This book was released on 1991 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The validity of constraining the responses of today's control dominant aircraft to conform to the classic flying qualities criteria derived from stability dominant aircraft experience has been an issue for many years. The introduction of full time visual scene enhancement with sensor fusion, and computer generated/interpreted night scenes, also escalates display dynamics into the arena of flying qualities concern. Integrated flight and propulsion control schemes and direct force controllers hae the potential for completely coupling all the sensors with all the controllers to provide any combination of controlled motion from six independently controlled single-degree of freedom systems to a single completely coupled six-degrees-of-freedom system. These new technologies have expanded flight envelopes, reduced drag, increased manoeuvrabilty, provided the framework for practical gust alleviation and active flutter suppression, and provided flexibility for fault-tolerant, damage-adaptive flight controls. However, the updating of flying qualitities criteria has in general not kept pace with these technological changes. The purpose of this Symposium was to review flying qualities issues today, and to report progress towards their resolution. The following topic areas were covered: -- flying qualities experiences on contemporary aircraft -- flying qualities research -- application of flying qualities specifications -- flying qualities at high incidence. The concluding "Round Table Discussion" provided the Session Chairmen with an opportunity to share with the Symposium attendees their view of the major issues relevant to their session topic which need to be addressed in the future.
