Download or read book Control and Dynamic Systems V33 Advances in Aerospace Systems Dynamics and Control Systems Part 3 of 3 written by C.T. Leonides and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2012-12-02 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Control and Dynamic Systems: Advances in Theory in Applications, Volume 33: Advances in Aerospace Systems Dynamics and Control Systems, Part 3 of 3 deals with significant advances in technologies which support the development of aerospace systems. It also presents several algorithms and computational techniques for complex aerospace systems. This book first presents a survey of analytical redundancy techniques to improve turbine engine control systems. It then discusses techniques for remotely piloted vehicles; control configured vehicles (CCV) techniques; aircraft handling; pilot-vehicle dynamics; and optimal control techniques for complex aerospace structure. This text is an excellent reference for research and professional workers in the field who want a comprehensive source of techniques with significant applied implications.

Book A Theory for Handling Qualities with Applications to MIL F 8785B

Download or read book A Theory for Handling Qualities with Applications to MIL F 8785B written by Ralph H. Smith and published by . This book was released on 1975 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report hypothesizes a model for pilot-airplane system dynamics which, it is claimed, will unify existing theories, explain peculiarities in available human response data, and permit the prediction of pilot opinion rating (POR) for tasks of interest to the assessment of aircraft flying qualities. The hypothesized model structure is multiple loop with essential nonlinearities. The proposed pilot model is further hypothesized to account for much that has been identified as pilot adaptation in past work. An attempt to parameterize the proposed model by a trial and error digital computer simulation produced promising but inconclusive results. However, comparison of the proposed pilot model with known forms of measured pilot dynamics for a wide range of aircraft dynamics suggested a metric for the correlation and prediction of POR that appears to be physically related to activity at a particular point within the central nervous system. This metric was evaluated for certain available data sets and was shown to be a consistent and sensitive measure of POR. It was then used to evaluate the short-period requirements of the flying qualities specification MIL-F-8785B. Several general and specific changes to the specification are recommended as a result of this study. (Author).

Book Aircraft Handling Qualities

Download or read book Aircraft Handling Qualities written by MS. John Hodgkinson and published by Wiley-Blackwell. This book was released on 1999 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a readable introduction to handling qualities, the combination of pilot acceptability and piloted performance with stability and control. It adopts the analytical and qualitative standpoints needed for handling qualities analysis and design of fixed-wing aircraft. Although there are several texts on stability and control, until now none has provided insight into the piloting concerns that have affected the success of recent fly-by-wire aircraft developments.

Book A Handling Qualities Theory for Precise Flight Path Control

Download or read book A Handling Qualities Theory for Precise Flight Path Control written by DAYTON UNIV OH RESEARCH INST. and published by . This book was released on 1966 with total page 29 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper discusses the overall subject of precise flight path control. A unifying precision control theory is presented and a control anticipation parameter is developed which relates the quantities that are involved in the man-machine precision control mechanism. A critical value for this parameter is suggested, based on experimental results, and is discussed in relation to pilot adaptability as reflected under the topics of control technique (control pumping), control function and control task. Also, an associated criterion in terms of aircraft characteristics is developed and techniques for improving the precision controllability of inherently deficient airframes through stick force and automatic flight control systems are discussed. Finally, experimental and analytical investigations are recommended which are deemed necessary for specifying the longitudinal handling qualities of manned vehicles. (Author).

Book A Study of Conventional Airplane Handling Qualities Requirements

Download or read book A Study of Conventional Airplane Handling Qualities Requirements written by I. L. Ashkenas and published by . This book was released on 1965 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report is a codification in two parts of conventional aircraft handling qualities criteria. The results of this effort are to serve as an intermediate design guide in the areas of lateral-directional oscillatory and roll control. The roll handling qualities portion of this report uses as a point of departure the concept that control of bank angle is the primary piloting task in maintaining or changing heading. In the lateral oscillatory portion of this effort, in defining requirements for satisfactory Dutch roll characteristics, a fundamental consideration is the fact that the motions characterizing this mode are ordinarily not the pilot's chief objective. That is, he is not deliberately inducing Dutch roll motions in the sense that he induces rolling and longitudinal short-period motions. A worthwhile approach to establishment of Dutch roll damping requirements is to first establish the basic level, and then to study the varied influences of the disturbance parameters. This approach provides the basis for the material contained in this report.
