Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A piloted simulation designed to examine the effects of terrain proximity and control system design on helicopter performance during one-on-one air combat maneuvering (ACM) is discussed. The NASA Ames Vertical Motion Simulator (VMS) and the Computer Generated Imagery (CGI) systems were modified to allow two aircraft to be independently piloted on a single CGI data base. Engagements were begun with the blue aircraft already in a tail-chase position behind the red, and also with the two aircraft originating from positions unknown to each other. Maneuvering was very aggressive and safety requirements for minimum altitude, separation, and maximum bank angles typical of flight test were not used. Results indicate that the presence of terrain features adds an order of complexity to the task performed over clear air ACM and that a mix of attitude and rate command-type Stability and Control Augmentation System (SCAS) design may be desirable. The simulation system design, the flight paths flown, and the tactics used were compared favorably by the evaluation pilots to actual flight test experiments. Keywords include: Helicopter; Rotorcraft; Air combat; NOE(Nap Of the Earth); Flight control systems.

Book excerpt: A study of helicopter roll control effectiveness based on closed-loop task performance measurement and modeling is presented. Roll control criteria are based upon task margin, the excess of vehicle task performance capability over the pilot's task performance demand. Appropriate helicopter roll axis dynamic models are defined for use with analytic models for task performance. Both near-earth and up-and-away large-amplitude maneuvering phases are considered. The results of in-flight and moving-base simulation measurements are presented to support the roll control effectiveness criteria offered. This Volume contains the theoretical analysis, simulation results and criteria development. Keywords: Rotorcraft; Helicopter handling qualities. (Author).

This book was released on 1987 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two piloted simulations were conducted by the U.S. Army Aeroflightdynamics Directorate to evaluate workload and helicopter qualities requirements for single pilot operation in a combat Nap-of-the-Earth environment. The single-pilot advanced cockpit engineering simulation (SPACES) investigations were performed on the NASA Ames Vertical Motion Simulator, using the Advanced Digital Control System control laws and an advanced concepts glass cockpit. The first simulation (SPACES I) compared single pilot to dual crewmember operation for the same flight tasks to determine differences between dual and single ratings, and to discover which control laws enabled adequate single-pilot helicopter operation. The SPACES II simulation concentrated on single-pilot operations and use of control laws thought to be viable candidates for single pilot operations workload. Measures detected significant differences between dual-and single-pilot operation and between single-pilot task segments. Control system configurations were task dependent, demonstrating the need for an inflight reconfigurable control system to match the optimal control system with the required task.
