In-Trim Flight Investigations of a Conceptual Fluidic Thrust-Vectored Unmanned Tail-Sitter Aircraft
The feasibility of using a stand alone Fluidic Thrust-Vectoring (FTV) system for the purpose of longitudinal trim of an unmanned aerial vehicle is the focus of the research presented in this paper. Since the fluidic thrust vectoring requires high pressure secondary air to deflect the engine exhaust gases, this research also provides an analytical toolset for preliminary sizing of a suitable sec...
متن کاملModeling and control of an agile tail-sitter aircraft
This paper presents a model of an agile tail-sitter aircraft, which can operate as a helicopter as well as capable of transition to fixed-wing flight. Aerodynamics of the co-axial counter-rotating propellers with quad rotors are analysed under the condition that the co-axial is operated at equal rotor torque (power). A finite-time convergent observer based on Lyapunov function is presented to e...
متن کاملEvolutionary Design of Robust Flight Control for a Hypersonic Aircraft
An evolutionary design approach is used to construct an autopilot for a hypersonic airbreathing aircraft. Flight control for this class of vehicle is an extremely challenging problem due to the combination of nonlinear dynamics, parametric uncertainty and complex constraints. Consequently, simultaneous control over the flight path, aerodynamic attitude and propulsion is required. This thesis de...
متن کاملAttitude Stabilization with Real-time Experiments of a Tail-sitter Aircraft in Horizontal Flight
This paper focusses on the attitude stabilization of a mini tail-sitter aircraft, considering aerodynamic effects. The main characteristic of this vehicle is that it operates in either the hover mode for launch and recovery, or the horizontal mode during cruise. The dynamic model is obtained using the Euler–Lagrange formulation, and aerodynamic effects are obtained by studying the propeller eff...
متن کاملOptimal Nonlinear Estimation for Aircraft Flight Control in Wind Shear
The continue-time unscented Kalman filter (UKF) is developed to estimate the state of a jet transport aircraft. The UKF is based on the nonlinear longitudinal aircraft equations of motion, and it is designed to provide estimates of horizontal and vertical atmospheric wind inputs. The optimal state and disturbance estimates are incorporated in feedback control laws based on the slowand fast-time...
