Intelligent Control Approaches for Aircraft Applications

摘要: This paper presents an overview of various intelligent control technologies currently being developed and studied under the Intelligent Flight Control (IFC) program at NASA Ames Research Center. The main objective flight is to develop next generation controllers for purpose automatically compensating a broad spectrum damaged or malfunctioning aircraft components reduce law development cost time. approaches examined include: (a) direct adaptive dynamic inverse controller (b) critic-based controller. These can utilize, but do not require, fault detection isolation information. Piloted simulation studies are performed examine if techniques adequately: 1) Match flying qualities modern fly-by-wire nominal conditions; 2) Improve performance failure conditions when sufficient authority available; 3) Achieve consistent handling across envelope different configurations. Results obtained so far demonstrate potential improving significantly increasing survivability rates simulated conditions.
