Book Helicopter Flight Simulation Motion Platform Requirements

Download or read book Helicopter Flight Simulation Motion Platform Requirements written by National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-06 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To determine motion fidelity requirements, a series of piloted simulations was performed. Several key results were found. First, lateral and vertical translational platform cues had significant effects on fidelity. Their presence improved performance and reduced pilot workload. Second, yaw and roll rotational platform cues were not as important as the translational platform cues. In particular, the yaw rotational motion platform cue did not appear at all useful in improving performance or reducing workload. Third, when the lateral translational platform cue was combined with visual yaw rotational cues, pilots believed the platform was rotating when it was not. Thus, simulator systems can be made more efficient by proper combination of platform and visual cues. Fourth, motion fidelity specifications were revised that now provide simulator users with a better prediction of motion fidelity based upon the frequency responses of their motion control laws. Fifth, vertical platform motion affected pilot estimates of steady-state altitude during altitude repositioning. Finally, the combined results led to a general method for configuring helicopter motion systems and for developing simulator tasks that more likely represent actual flight. The overall results can serve as a guide to future simulator designers and to today's operators.Schroeder, Jeffery AllynAmes Research CenterFLIGHT SIMULATION; HELICOPTERS; ESTIMATES; VERTICAL MOTION; VISUAL STIMULI; YAW; CONTROL THEORY; CUES; PREDICTIONS; ROTATION; STEADY STATE; WORKLOADS (PSYCHOPHYSIOLOGY)

Book Contribution of a Motion Cueing System to Helicopter Flight Simulation

Download or read book Contribution of a Motion Cueing System to Helicopter Flight Simulation written by Britta Levin and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The acquisition of training media for the Nordic Standard Helicopter is in progress. The objective of this study is to assess the contribution of a motion cueing system to helicopter flight simulation. The goal is to determine the feasibility of maintaining high and intended training efficiency using a technically somewhat simplified training simulator, thus the primary focus is the consequence of excluding the motion system. An introduction is given to psycho-physiological reactions in humans as a result of motion, as well as aspects of training and flight simulation technology. The results from previous and present research on motion systems are discussed. Humans have an excellent ability to adapt to the present situation and will if needed change the control behavior in order to meet the mission objectives. There is no strong evidence supporting the need for motion to perform specific mission types. However, the addition of motion has shown significant benefits for certain kinds of tasks/maneuvers performed during particular conditions. Considering the fact that most tasks performed in a simulator are not critical to motion, it should be possible to distribute a substantial amount of training to non-motion simulators. A recommendation is given on use of training media.

Download or read book Vehicle Simulation written by Alfred T. Lee and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-11-13 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers the problem of fidelity in the design of virtual environments with specific reference to the design of vehicle simulators. The default design goal has been on the physical replication of a given real-world environment and, in the case of vehicles, the specific appearance and function of vehicle components. This book discusses that perceptual, rather than physical, fidelity of a virtual environment, should be the design goal and the principal purpose is to produce human behavior. This book provides the rationale and design guidance to maximize perceptual fidelity in the development of virtual environments, and therefore maximize the costeffectiveness as well.

Book Principles and Practice of Aviation Psychology

Download or read book Principles and Practice of Aviation Psychology written by Pamela S. Tsang and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2002-08-01 with total page 625 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Covering field history and discussing actual modern-day pilot actions and tasks, the editors of this volume have integrated contributions from leaders in aviation to present psychological principles and research pertinent to the interface between a pilot and the cockpit. The book addresses the pilot‘s cognitive demands, capabilities, and limitations, which have important implications for operator selection and training as well as display/control designs in the cockpit. It emphasizes scientific methods of achieving this understanding and implies that theories and principles of human behavior are shaped and improved by practical problems and applied studies.

Book Measuring  modelling and minimizing perceived motion incongruence for vehicle motion simulation

Download or read book Measuring modelling and minimizing perceived motion incongruence for vehicle motion simulation written by Diane Cleij and published by Logos Verlag Berlin GmbH. This book was released on 2020-01-28 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Humans always wanted to go faster and higher than their own legs could carry them. This led them to invent numerous types of vehicles to move fast over land, water and air. As training how to handle such vehicles and testing new developments can be dangerous and costly, vehicle motion simulators were invented. Motion-based simulators in particular, combine visual and physical motion cues to provide occupants with a feeling of being in the real vehicle. While visual cues are generally not limited in amplitude, physical cues certainly are, due to the limited simulator motion space. A motion cueing algorithm (MCA) is used to map the vehicle motions onto the simulator motion space. This mapping inherently creates mismatches between the visual and physical motion cues. Due to imperfections in the human perceptual system, not all visual/physical cueing mismatches are perceived. However, if a mismatch is perceived, it can impair the simulation realism and even cause simulator sickness. For MCA design, a good understanding of when mismatches are perceived, and ways to prevent these from occurring, are therefore essential. In this thesis a data-driven approach, using continuous subjective measures of the time-varying Perceived Motion Incongruence (PMI), is adopted. PMI in this case refers to the effect that perceived mismatches between visual and physical motion cues have on the resulting simulator realism. The main goal of this thesis was to develop an MCA-independent off-line prediction method for time-varying PMI during vehicle motion simulation, with the aim of improving motion cueing quality. To this end, a complete roadmap, describing how to measure and model PMI and how to apply such models to predict and minimize PMI in motion simulations is presented. Results from several human-in-the-loop experiments are used to demonstrate the potential of this novel approach.

Book Simulation in Aviation Training

Download or read book Simulation in Aviation Training written by Florian Jentsch and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-05-15 with total page 879 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Simulations have been a fixture of aviation training for many years. Advances in simulator technology now enable modern flight simulation to mimic very closely the look and feel of real world flight operations. In spite of this, responsible researchers, trainers, and simulation developers should look beyond mere simulator fidelity to produce meaningful training outcomes. Optimal simulation training development can unquestionably benefit from knowledge and understanding of past, present, and future research in this topic area. As a result, this volume of key writings is invaluable as a reference, to help guide exploration of critical research in the field. By providing a mix of classic articles that stand the test of time, and recent writings that illuminate current issues, this volume informs a broad range of topics relevant to simulation training in aviation.
