Pilot modeling techniques, have played a crucial role in manned aviation and have also, as
a consequence, generated major advances in human control behavior research. This paper …

Fixed and rotary wing pilots alike are familiar with potential instabilities or with annoying limit
cycle oscillations that arise from the effort of controlling aircraft with high response actuation …

The study of human–machine interaction as a unique control system was one of the first
research interests in the engineering field, with almost a century having passed since the …

Understanding, predicting and supressing the inadvertent aircraft oscillations caused by
Aircraft/Rotorcraft Pilot Couplings (A/RPC) is a challenging problem for designers. These are …

Tiltrotor aircraft are challenging machines to design considering the various operating
conditions and multipurpose missions that are expected to be performed by this complex …

This work proposes the simultaneous solution of inverse kinematics and inverse dynamics of
redundant manipulators for (nearly) real-time joint trajectory design and feedforward control …

This work describes the application of an adaptive control algorithm based on the
generalized predictive control paradigm to a detailed nonlinear aeroelastic model of a …

This work investigates rotorcraft–pilot coupling phenomena in tiltrotor aircraft. A detailed
tiltrotor model, representative of the Bell XV-15, has been built. Biomechanical models of the …

Abstract The introduction of Flight Control System in modern rotorcraft calls for an
improvement of the classical aeromechanics analysis methods used to investigate the …

The involuntary interaction of pilots with vehicles is often an undesired consequence of the
biodynamic feedthrough of cockpit vibrations into the control system in relation with the …
