Design of a Sliding Mode Control for Wing Rock Suppression in Highly-Swept Wing Aircraft
نویسندگان
چکیده
W ing rock is an oscillatory ro lling motion which arises at high angles of attack in aircraft with highly-swept wings. In the present paper, a method to suppress wing rock through sliding mode control is proposed. Sliding mode control is designed to min imize together roll angle error and command input through a cost function. The procedure is performed on a wing-only analytical model, the controller is then applied to a complete wing-fuselage model. Simulations include different angles of attack and robustness is assessed using a model altered by parametric d isturbances. Results are compared with the behavior obtained by a conventional roll damper.

متن کاملSuppression of wing rock of slender delta wings using a single neuron controller
Wing rock is a highly nonlinear phenomenon in which the aircraft undergoes limit cycle roll oscillations at high angles of attack. A single neuron control scheme for suppression of wing rock of slender delta wings is presented. The effectiveness of the control scheme is demonstrated through software simulation and real-time control experiments in a wind tunnel on a 80 swept back wing. The suppr...

A new design concept in the development of vertical takeoff and landing aircraft with high forward flight speed capability is that of the X-Wing. The X-Wing is a stiff, bearingless helicopter rotor system which can be stopped in flight and the blades used as two forward-swept wings and two aft-swept wings. Because of the unusual configuration in the fixed-wing mode, there is a high potential fo...

The wing rock phenomenon is a high angle of attack aerodynamic motion manifested by limit cycle roll oscillations. Experimental studies reveal that direct control and manipulation of leading edge vortices, through the use of ‘blowing’ techniques is effective in the suppression of wing rock. This paper presents the design of a robust controller for the experimental implementation of one such ‘bl...

Extensive wind tunnel tests are conducted to evaluate surface pressure distribution of a semi span swept wing. The wing section has a laminar flow airfoil similar to NACA 6-series airfoils. The investigations are conducted at various speeds and angles of attack. Surface pressure distribution over the wing upper surface is measured for both chordwise and spanwise sections. Statistical analyses a...
