AMONG nonlinear control methods, gain scheduling is one of the most popular [1, 2], and
efforts have been made recently to put forth a unified framework for it [3]. There are mainly …

For the air-breathing hypersonic vehicles (AHSV) with a broad flight envelope, this paper
proposes a new controller design method to ensure robust stability in the presence of …

The stabilisation and control mechanisms of an Unmanned Aerial System (UAS) must be
properly designed to ensure acceptable flight performance. During their operation, these …

Kriging-based modeling has been widely used in computationally intensive simulations.
However, the Kriging modeling of high-dimensional problems not only takes more time, but …

The coupling of the longitudinal and lateral stability modes of an aeroplane is considered in
two cases:(i) weak coupling, when the changes in the frequency and damping of the …

The automatic carrier landing process is a significant and complex due to the plant variation
of carrier‐based aircraft. To reasonably identify the stability interval for specific performance …

This study investigates the impact of wind shear on the flight dynamics of commercial aircraft
where C* and C* U control laws are employed during the approach phase. Given the high …

A robust control design for a space launcher during its atmospheric ascent is presented.
Considering a typical wind profile during flight, the launcher controller has to first stabilize …

A fixed architecture flight controller guaranteeing a priori given handling quality
requirements is proposed. Handling qualities are translated into pole confinement within a …

This paper presents a practical design of longitudinal stability and control augmentation
system (SCAS) using a two degree of freedom (TDOF) controller. It is based on the linear …
