Analytical Investigation of Acceleration Restrictiion in a Fighter Airplane with an Automatic Control System
Author: James T. Matthews
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Acceleration (Mechanics)
Languages : en
Pages : 726
Book Description
A theoretical analysis was made to investigate the performance and acceleration-restriction capabilities of a normal-acceleration command control system in a fighter airplane. Several combinations of pitching velocity and pitching acceleration were investigated as feedback quantities in combination with normal acceleration.

A Flight and Analytical Study of Methods for Reducing Automatic-interceptor Tracking Errors Caused by Target Maneuvers
Author: Charles W. Mathews
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Automatic pilot (Airplanes)
Languages : en
Pages : 58
Book Description
The present study is concerned primarily with methods of reducing or eliminating automatic-interceptor tracking errors that are caused by target maneuvers. The flight-test phase of the study was made with an automatic interceptor system. This system utilized an error integrator in the deflection channel of the automatic system to eliminate steady-state errors caused by steady target maneuvers.

An In-Flight Investigation to Develop Control System Design Criteria for Fighter Airplanes

Pages : 152
Book Description
The effects of control system dynamics on the longitudinal flying qualities of fighter airplanes were investigated in flight, using the USAF/CAL variable stability T-33 airplane. Two pilots evaluated a total of 57 different combinations of control system and short-period dynamics at two flight conditions, while performing tasks representative of the 'combat' phase of a fighter's mission. The pilot rating and comment data from this investigation indicate that the dynamic modes of the flight control system can cause serious flying qualities problems, even if the short-period mode is well behaved. The data do not correlate with the control system requirements of MIL-F-8785B. In addition, the data demonstrate that the C* criterion does not adequately account for the effects of control system dynamics. Pilot-in-the-loop analysis of the data is shown to describe effectively the pilot's difficulties in control of pitch attitude, providing insight into how the pilot flies the airplane. A design criterion, based on this analysis, is shown to be applicable to a wide range of short-period and control system dynamics. A simplified version is also presented to provide the designer with preliminary estimates of flying qualities.
