Book A Study of V STOL Ground Based Simulation Techniques

Download or read book A Study of V STOL Ground Based Simulation Techniques written by John B. Sinacori and published by . This book was released on 1970 with total page 43 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of the study is to define the simulation characteristics required to establish the simulator as a reliable and valid tool in the development of V/STOL aircraft and helicopters. A flight simulator employing the point light source principle to generate a visual display was used in these studies. Previous studies of a jet-lift V/STOL aircraft in this simulator uncovered a pilot-vehicle performance deficiency during lateral maneuvers, resulting in a nausea reaction which limited pilot participation. In the present investigation, human motion perception was studied, and solutions to this pilot-vehicle performance deficiency were evolved by the use of a moving base. The results demonstrated that effective simulation is possible when certain constraints are observed. The best constraints of the drive mechanism were determined experimentally and were compared with those implied from physiological concepts of human motion perception. A simulation validation rationale was also developed to assist the pilot in his evaluations. An example of this is described together with a discussion of some limitaions. (Author).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A study of various kinds of simulators has been made to determine their capability to produce data representative of visual flight. Four simulations of a jet-lift V/STOL aircraft were conducted using the same pilot. Control characteristics and airframe parameters were maintained constant (as closely as possible), and the same tasks were used by the pilot in each evaluation. The resulting data were compared with flight results from the same aircraft. The simulators used different displays, motion modes, and instrumentation, and the results are discussed in the light of the characteristics of each simulator. The results show clearly that in order to produce quantitative data representative of flight results, the display must have a quality level compatible with the task being performed. Specifically, a precision hovering task requires a high resolution display, while a translation (or transition task) can be performed with a display of much less resolution. The display content is important, particularly for the precision hovering task where height holding is required. For flight simulation of large translational movements, cockpit motion did not appear to affect the results; however, for precision hover and small, quick position changes, cockpit motion appears to be important in that it assists the pilot in detecting small drift and improves his ability to control vehicle attitude. The absence of cockpit motion when using a point source visual display for the presentation of visual information can cause vertigo and loss of performance. (Author).

Book A Flight Investigation of Lateral directional Handling Qualities for V STOL Aircraft in Low Speed Maneuvering Flight

Download or read book A Flight Investigation of Lateral directional Handling Qualities for V STOL Aircraft in Low Speed Maneuvering Flight written by Karl-Heinz Doetsch and published by . This book was released on 1970 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An investigation to determine the ranges of various lateral directional characteristics required to provide adequate flying qualities for turning maneuvers at low speed was undertaken using an airborne V/STOL aircraft simulator. Five parameters were varied in a systematic manner: the damping ratio, the frequency, and the ratio and the frequency of the numerator of the roll-angle to aileron-control-input transfer function. The pilots performed a low speed, visual maneuvering task and documented their assessment of the characteristics through extensive comments and a numerical rating. The report presents all the data categorized with respect to the test parameters. (Author).

Book Study  Survey of Helicopter and V stol Aircraft Simulator Trainer Dynamic Response  Volume Ii  Dynamic Response Criteria for V stol Aircraft Flight Trainers

Download or read book Study Survey of Helicopter and V stol Aircraft Simulator Trainer Dynamic Response Volume Ii Dynamic Response Criteria for V stol Aircraft Flight Trainers written by H. G. Streiff and published by . This book was released on 1967 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The results of a study to determine the dynamic response criteria for V/STOL aircraft simulator trainers are presented. The fundamentals of V/STOL dynamics, control, and simulation within the various V/STOL flight regimes are described. Difficulties likely to be encountered in developing an adequate V/STOL aircraft simulation are also presented. Methods and procedures for determining the accuracy to which specific dynamic response parameters must be simulated are presented, and based upon these, simulation tolerances are developed for each significant handling qualities parameter in each flight regime. The dynamic attributes of the pilot-aircraft combination with regard to each specific parameter are discussed. A detailed description of various V/STOL aircraft equations of motion, transfer functions, and modes of motion is included and the practical limitations of various methods and procedures for programming the equations of motion for piloted flight simulation purposes are discussed.

Book Dynamics  Control  and Flying Qualities of V STOL Aircraft

Download or read book Dynamics Control and Flying Qualities of V STOL Aircraft written by James A. Franklin and published by AIAA. This book was released on 2002 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Annotation This text presents the principles of dynamics and control for vertical, short take-off landing (V/STOL) aircraft. It is the first book of its kind. It is intended for graduate students and professionals in aeronautics who have knowledge of linear systems analysis, aircraft static, dynamic stability, and control. The text begins with a discussion of V/STOL aircraft operations. Control strategies, equations of motion, longitudinal and lateral-directional flying qualities in both hover and forward flight, wind and turbulence responses, and control augmentation and cockpit displays are covered. Specific examples of the YAV-8B Harrier and XV-15 Tilt Rotor aircraft are used to illustrate actual V/STOL dynamic and control characteristics.

This book was released on 1973 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: See also AD-A001 596 and AD-A001 598.(*Flight control systems, *Flight simulators), (*Vertical takeoff aircraft, *Specifications), Flight simulation, Attitude control systems, Roll, Pitch(Motion), Hovering, Thrust vector control systems, Dynamic responseFixed- and moving-base flight simulator experiments and analyses were conducted to provide data for use in substantiating, refining and extending the hovering and low-speed-flight portion of MIL-F-8330 - V/STOL Flying Qualities Specification. For longitudinal and lateral control, the following areas were investigated: turbulence intensity, control lags and delays, control-moment limits, control moments through stored energy, inter-axis motion coupling, independent thrust-vector control and rate-command/attitude-hold control. For height and directional control, the effects of damping levels, control lags and delays, and control power limits were investigated. Opinion ratings, pilot comments, and pilot-selected control sensitivities were recorded in the flight simulator experiments; control-power-usage data were also obtained. (Modified author abstract).
