Aircraft Safety: Control Upset Management

چکیده
The first year of activity has been productive. • We list a total of 21 papers published or submitted by members of the research team and that have been partially supported by our sponsors. • We attended the annual SAAP-Industry meeting on March 5 – 7, 2002, in Hampton, VA. • Langley's FOSS laboratory has generated data on strain tests that is being used as test bed for some fault signature techniques. And, in an exciting new twist, it is pointing to a new blind identification technique for fault detection. • We have received a complete mathematical model of a B747 that is being used by all the SAAP partners.

Development of a Dynamically Scaled Generic Transport Model Testbed for Flight Research Experiments
This paper details the design and development of the Airborne Subscale Transport Aircraft Research (AirSTAR) test-bed at NASA Langley Research Center (LaRC). The aircraft is a 5.5% dynamically scaled, remotely piloted, twin-turbine, swept wing, Generic Transport Model (GTM) which will be used to provide an experimental flight test capability for research experiments pertaining to dynamics model...
متن کاملSituational Awareness and Decision-Making for Distressed Aircraft
Situational awareness and decision-making are necessary to identify and select the optimal set of mutually non-exclusive hypothesis in order to maximize mission success by adapting system behavior accordingly. This paper presents a hierarchical and decentralized approach for integrated damage assessment and trajectory re-planning in aircraft with uncertainties in navigational decision-making. A...

The paper presents a model, multi-agent architecture, implementation approach and software prototype of a multi-agent system for autonomous air traffic control within airport airspace capable of automatic detection of potential violations of safety policies by individual aircraft and consequent incident management. It features a model facilitating practical implementation of the concepts of ope...
متن کاملQuantitative Risk Evaluation of Obstacle Limitation Surfaces for Final Approaches at Airports
Obstacle limitation surfaces (OLS) are the main safeguard against objects that can pose a hazard to aircraft operations at and around airports. The standard dimensions of the most of those surfaces were estimated using the pilot’s experience at the time when they were included in the standard documents. As a result, some of these standards may have been overestimated, while others may not provi...
متن کاملModelling Free Flight with Collision Avoidance
Free flight has been proposed as a future alternative to the current policy in Air Traffic Management (ATM) where aircraft follow predefined corridors. In free flight pilots can choose their own optimal routes, altitudes and velocities but are also responsible for the safe and fair resolution of trajectory conflicts. This would require a safe distributed control system were the trajectories tha...
