Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the future digital processors will be used to compute control surface deflections based upon pilot inputs, current surface position and other variables. The purpose of this investigation was to generate an algorithm to choose the best output signal from among four asynchronous inputs. The problem was divided into two tasks: comparison monitoring and signal selection. The use of an IMP-16C microprocessor to implement the algorithm is discussed and the design of an interface which will allow communications between the flight control processors and the digital voter/monitor is presented.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A software Voter/Monitor (V/M) system is designed and implemented. The V/M is an informational processing device which is to be used in a digital flight control system (DFCS). A DFCS is currently being developed to replace existing analogue flight control systems in selective military aircrafts. The V/M receives data over four separate input channels, and it performs a processing routine which (a) allows it to continually select one of the input channel data for routing over its single output channel; and (b) allows it to maintain a history of each input channel data for routing over its single output channel; and (b) allows it to maintain a history of each input channel performance and declare as defective any input channel from which it consistently receives 'bad' data. The V/M is implemented using the National Semiconductor IMP-16L Microcomputer. The V/M processing scheme uses input-input comparison monitoring. Software coding and hardware circuitry are designed. Additionally, a software test program is constructed. The V/M system testing is limited. The correct performance of the V/M system is illustrated under a static testing environment.

This book was released on 1977 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report describes an evaluation and presents the test results of a Digital Hardware Voter/Monitor used as an input signal selector and fault detector when used in conjunction with an electro-hydraulic control system. The DHVM operated as intended by design although asynchronous operation caused the failure detection to be frequency dependent. A digital filter could be incorporated to reduce the frequency dependency of the failure detection circuitry. (Author).

Download or read book Introduction to Avionics Systems written by R.P.G. Collinson and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-06-01 with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now in a revised fourth edition, this course-tested textbook explains the basic principles and underlying theory of the core avionic systems in modern civil and military aircraft. The new edition includes extensive revisions on the latest developments in helmet-mounted displays (HMDs), the use of helmet-mounted rate gyros for helmet tracking, HUD/HMD optical waveguide system technology, and the latest advances on replacing CRTs with solid state displays in HUDs. Updates on controls and fly-by-wire include a section on civil aircraft to cover the Airbus A350 and the advances in its flight control system over the Airbus A380. A new section on automatic flight control of vectored thrust aircraft covers the BAE Systems Harrier and the Lockheed Martin F-35B Lightning 2 Joint Strike Fighter. Detailed coverage is provided for F-35B flight control systems for vertical landing. Introduction to Avionic Systems, Fourth Edition is an ideal textbook for undergraduate and graduate courses in avionics and aeronautical engineering, as well as professional development and training courses for post-graduates entering the aerospace industry from a wide range of technical backgrounds and practicing engineers at all levels who require an understanding of avionic systems, aircraft navigation, flight control, and data transmission and systems.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Provides a significant update to the definitive book on aircraft system design This book is written for anyone who wants to understand how industry develops the customer requirement for aircraft into a fully integrated, tested, and qualified product that is safe to fly and fit for purpose. The new edition of Design and Development of Aircraft Systems fully expands its already comprehensive coverage to include both conventional and unmanned systems. It also updates all chapters to bring them in line with current design practice and technologies taught in courses at Cranfield, Bristol, and Loughborough universities in the UK. Design and Development of Aircraft Systems, 3rd Edition begins with an introduction to the subject. It then introduces readers to the aircraft systems (airframe, vehicle, avionic, mission, and ground systems). Following that comes a chapter on the design and development process. Other chapters look at design drivers, systems architectures, systems integration, verification of system requirements, practical considerations, and configuration control. The book finishes with sections that discuss the potential impact of complexity on flight safety, key characteristics of aircraft systems, and more. Provides a holistic view of aircraft system design, describing the interactions among subsystems such as fuel, navigation, flight control, and more Substantially updated coverage of systems engineering, design drivers, systems architectures, systems integration, modelling of systems, practical considerations, and systems examples Incorporates essential new material on the regulatory environment for both manned and unmanned systems Discussion of trends towards complex systems, automation, integration and the potential for an impact on flight safety Design and Development of Aircraft Systems, 3rd Edition is an excellent book for aerospace engineers, researchers, and graduate students involved in the field.

Download or read book Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences written by Wade H. Shafer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-21 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and dis· seminated 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 ac· tivity 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 concerned 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 Corporation 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 20 (thesis year 1975) a total of 10,374 theses titles from 28 Canadian and 239 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base for theses titles reported will greatly enhance the value of this important annual reference work. The organization of Volume 20 is identical to that of past years. It consists of theses titles arranged by discipline and by university within each discipline.
