This book was released on 1981 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The theory of high-gain error-actuated feedback control, developed by Porter and Bradshaw, was applied to the design of various longitudinal decoupling flight control systems for an advanced aircraft. The controllers developed in this study utilized output feedback with proportional plus integral control to produce desirable closed-loop response with minimal interaction between outputs. This report describes how entire eigenstructure assignment can be used to determine appropriate measurement equations by assigning their corresponding transmission zeros. A singular value decomposition was used to choose the eigenvectors from their permissible subspaces. The results show that these modes appear in the output response, even for very high gain. Therefore, selection of good eigenvalues/eigenvectors was shown to be crucial to the successful application of this theory. This report also examined the effect of varying the other design parameters on the closed-loop system response.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The workshop was organized and conducted by the Control Techniques Group, Flight Control Division, Flight Dynamics Laboratory, as part of an ongoing effort in flight control specification/criteria development. The workshop focused on the results of applying multivariable control techniques to the development of flight control systems for present day aircraft. This report contains condensed versions of the five papers presented at the workshop: (1) Multivariable Control Laws for the AFTI/F-16, (2) Design of a Complete Multivariable Digital Flight Control System, (3)Digital Multivariable Tracker Control Laws for the C-141-A Starlifter Aircraft; (4) High-Gain Error Actuated Flight Control Systems for Continuous Linear Multivariable Plants, and (5) Reconfigurable Digital Control Laws for the A-7D DIGITAC II Aircraft With Failed Primary Control Surfaces.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and disseminated by the Center for Information and Numerical Data Analysis and Synthesis (CINDAS) * at Purdue University in 1957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dissemination phases of the activity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the thought that such an arrangement would be more beneficial to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After five years of this joint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of all con cerned if the printing and distribution of the volume were handled by an international publishing house to assure improved service and broader dissemination. Hence, starting with Volume 18, Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences has been disseminated on a worldwide basis by Plenum Publishing Cor poration of New York, and in the same year the coverage was broadened to include Canadian universities. All back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 26 (thesis year 1981) a total of 11 ,048 theses titles from 24 Canadian and 21 8 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base for these titles reported will greatly enhance the value of this important annual reference work. While Volume 26 reports theses submitted in 1981, on occasion, certain univer sities do report theses submitted in previous years but not reported at the time.

Download or read book Application of Eigenstructure Assignment Techniques in the Design of a Longitudinal Flight Control System written by Daniel G. Goddard and published by . This book was released on 1987 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The use of eigenstructure assignment techniques has received wide attention as a tool for designing flight control systems for aircraft with multiple control surfaces. Development of a method for choosing the desired eigenstructure of the augmented, closed-loop system which would meet the handling qualities specifications was examined. This method consisted of forming an optimal plant matrix which possessed desirable dynamic characteristics and performing a spectral decomposition of this matrix. The resulting eigenstructure was used as the desired eigenvalues and eigenvectors during the full-state feedback, eigenstructure assignment process. The resulting feedback gain matrix was used in the control system. This process was performed on a model of the X-29A using the canard, flaperon, and strake flap control surfaces. The resulting augmented system was evaluated using the Neal-Smith pilot-model analysis and also using an X-29A main-in-the-loop simulation. The results show that the method is very promising, although care must be taken that all anticipated control system dynamics are considered when forming the optimal A matrix.
