Reducing the theoretical methods of flight control to design practice, Practical
Methods for Aircraft and Rotorcraft Flight Control Design: An
Optimization-Based Approach compiles the authors’ extensive experience
and lessons learned into a single comprehensive resource for both
academics and working flight control engineers.
Concepts Discussed:
- Historical flight control design case studies and lessons learned, and best practices in selecting control law architecture, specifications, and simulation modeling.
- Multi-objective parametric optimization design approach, with a focus on how to apply this method to both simple case studies and real-world piloted simulation and flight-test examples.
- Optimization of classical and modern MIMO control design methods to meet a common set of design requirements and compare the resulting performance and robustness.
Special Features:
- Step-by-step illustrations of all methods using practical case studies covering the entire design cycle, from selection of design specifications and simulation model to optimization results and robustness analysis.
- Specific guidelines for specification selection, simulation modeling, control design rules of thumb, robustness analysis, nested-loop architecture optimization, and design margin optimization.
- Extensive problem sets and a solution guide for classrooms or self-study, giving hands-on real-world experience with methods and results. Student version of CONDUIT® for exercises is included.
