Book Piloted Simulation Assessment of a High Speed Civil Transport Configuration

Download or read book Piloted Simulation Assessment of a High Speed Civil Transport Configuration written by and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An assessment of a proposed configuration of a high-speed civil transport was conducted by using NASA and industry research pilots. The assessment was conducted to evaluate operational aspects of the configuration from a pilot's perspective, with the primary goal being to identify potential deficiencies in the configuration. The configuration was evaluated within and at the limits of the design operating envelope to determine the suitability of the configuration to maneuver in a typical mission as well as in emergency Or envelope-limit conditions. The Cooper-Harper rating scale was used to evaluate the flying qualities of the configuration. A summary flying qualities metric was also calculated. The assessment was performed in the Langley six-degree-of-freedom Visual Motion Simulator. The effect of a restricted cockpit field-of-view due to obstruction by the vehicle nose was not included in this study.

Download or read book High Speed Civil Transport Aircraft Simulation written by National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-05-31 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The mathematical model and associated code to simulate a high speed civil transport aircraft - the Boeing Reference H configuration - are described. The simulation was constructed in support of advanced control law research. In addition to providing time histories of the dynamic response, the code includes the capabilities for calculating trim solutions and for generating linear models. The simulation relies on the nonlinear, six-degree-of-freedom equations which govern the motion of a rigid aircraft in atmospheric flight. The 1962 Standard Atmosphere Tables are used along with a turbulence model to simulate the Earth atmosphere. The aircraft model has three parts - an aerodynamic model, an engine model, and a mass model. These models use the data from the Boeing Reference H cycle 1 simulation data base. Models for the actuator dynamics, landing gear, and flight control system are not included in this aircraft model. Dynamic responses generated by the nonlinear simulation are presented and compared with results generated from alternate simulations at Boeing Commercial Aircraft Company and NASA Langley Research Center. Also, dynamic responses generated using linear models are presented and compared with dynamic responses generated using the nonlinear simulation.Sotack, Robert A. and Chowdhry, Rajiv S. and Buttrill, Carey S.Langley Research CenterSUPERSONIC TRANSPORTS; TRANSPORT AIRCRAFT; BOEING AIRCRAFT; CIVIL AVIATION; AIRCRAFT MODELS; MATHEMATICAL MODELS; COMPUTERIZED SIMULATION; ALGORITHMS; AERODYNAMIC CHARACTERISTICS; DYNAMIC RESPONSE; FLIGHT CONTROL; CONTROL SYSTEMS DESIGN; LANDING GEAR; NONLINEAR EQUATIONS; EQUATIONS OF MOTION; UNSTEADY FLOW; STEADY FLOW

Book Taxiing  Take Off  and Landing Simulation of the High Speed Civil Transport Aircraft

Download or read book Taxiing Take Off and Landing Simulation of the High Speed Civil Transport Aircraft written by National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-06-11 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aircraft industry jointly with NASA is studying enabling technologies for higher speed, longer range aircraft configurations. Higher speeds, higher temperatures, and aerodynamics are driving these newer aircraft configurations towards long, slender, flexible fuselages. Aircraft response during ground operations, although often overlooked, is a concern due to the increased fuselage flexibility. This paper discusses modeling and simulation of the High Speed Civil Transport aircraft during taxiing, take-off, and landing. Finite element models of the airframe for various configurations are used and combined with nonlinear landing gear models to provide a simulation tool to study responses to different ground input conditions. A commercial computer simulation program is used to numerically integrate the equations of motion and to compute estimates of the responses using an existing runway profile. Results show aircraft responses exceeding safe acceptable human response levels.Reaves, Mercedes C. and Horta, Lucas G.Langley Research CenterAIRCRAFT PERFORMANCE; COMPUTERIZED SIMULATION; FINITE ELEMENT METHOD; LANDING SIMULATION; SUPERSONIC TRANSPORTS; TAKEOFF; TAXIING; AIRFIELD SURFACE MOVEMENTS; DYNAMIC RESPONSE; MATHEMATICAL MODELS; FLIGHT CHARACTERISTICS; TRANSPORT AIRCRAFT; EQUATIONS OF MOTION; AIRCRAFT LANDING; COMMERCIAL AIRCRAFT; LANDING GEAR; NUMERICAL INTEGRATION; VIBRATION MODE

Book Simulation Study of Impact of Aeroelastic Characteristics on Flying Qualities of a High Speed Civil Transport

Download or read book Simulation Study of Impact of Aeroelastic Characteristics on Flying Qualities of a High Speed Civil Transport written by David L. Raney and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A piloted simulation study conducted in NASA Langley Visual Motion Simulator addressed the impact of dynamic aero- servoelastic effects on flying qualities of a High Speed Civil Transport. The intent was to determine effectiveness of measures to reduce the impact of aircraft flexibility on piloting tasks. Potential solutions examined were increasing frequency of elastic modes through structural stiffening, increasing damping of elastic modes through active control, elimination of control effector excitation of the lowest frequency elastic modes, and elimination of visual cues associated with elastic modes. Six test pilots evaluated and performed simulated maneuver tasks, encountering incidents wherein cockpit vibrations due to elastic modes fed back into the control stick through involuntary vibrations of the pilots upper body and arm.

Six test pilots evaluated and performed simulated maneuver tasks, encountering incidents wherein cockpit vibrations due to elastic modes fed back into the control stick through involuntary vibrations of the pilots upper body and arm. Structural stiffening and compensation of the visual display were of little benefit in alleviating this impact, while increased damping and elimination of control effector excitation of the elastic modes both offered great improvements when applied in sufficient degree.Raney, David L. and Jackson, E.

Book High Speed Civil Transport Issues and Technology Program

Download or read book High Speed Civil Transport Issues and Technology Program written by National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-07-18 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A strawman program plan is presented, consisting of technology developments and demonstrations required to support the construction of a high-speed civil transport. The plan includes a compilation of technology issues related to the development of a transport. The issues represent technical areas in which research and development are required to allow airframe manufacturers to pursue an HSCT development. The vast majority of technical issues presented require flight demonstrated and validated solutions before a transport development will be undertaken by the industry. The author believes that NASA is the agency best suited to address flight demonstration issues in a concentrated effort. The new Integrated Test Facility at NASA Dryden Flight Research Facility is considered ideally suited to the task of supporting ground validations of proof-of-concept and prototype system demonstrations before night demonstrations. An elaborate ground hardware-in-the-loop (iron bird) simulation supported in this facility provides a viable alternative to developing an expensive fill-scale prototype transport technology demonstrator. Drygen's SR-71 assets, modified appropriately, are a suitable test-bed for supporting flight demonstrations and validations of certain transport technology solutions. A subscale, manned or unmanned flight demonstrator is suitable for flight validation of transport technology solutions, if appropriate structural similarity relationships can be established. The author contends that developing a full-scale prototype transport technology demonstrator is the best alternative to ensuring that a positive decision to develop a transport is reached by the United States aerospace industry.
