In developing modern aircraft, the reconfiguration control that can improve the safety and the survivability against the unexpected failure by partitioning control surfaces into several parts has been actively studied. This paper deals with the reconfiguration control using model predictive control method considering the saturation of control surfaces under the control surface failure. Linearized aircraft model at trim condition is used as the internal model of model predictive control. We propose the controller that performs optimization using LMI (linear matrix inequalities) based semi-definite programming in case that control surface saturation occurs, otherwise, uses analytic solution of the model predictive control. The performance of the proposed control method is evaluated by nonlinear simulation under the flight scenario of control surface failure.

In this study, forces and moments were measured on a projectile which consisted of a missile configuration body(shell) and a head installed control fins. The shell and the head were separated each other and the shell was rotated by an electric motor. The head rotated reversely against the rotational direction of the shell. The rotational force on the head was obtained from a couple of fixed fins of which angular displacement were set to the rotational direction equally. The air velocity was 40m/s on the experiment and the Reynolds number based on the diameter of head was $1.3{\times}10^5$. The other couple of fins were used to control the position and direction of the projectile by changing the angular displacement. From this experiment, the variation of force and moment were measured on the rotating projectile, and the effective amplitude and frequency were obtained through the FFT analysis.

The aeroelastic characteristics of a wing with control surface freeplay are investigated. The transonic small disturbance equation is used for unsteady aerodynamic forces in subsonic/transonic region. The fictitious mass method is introduced to apply a modal approach to nonlinear structural models. Nonlinear aeroelastic time responses are calculated by the coupled time integration method. Using these methods, an efficient aeroelastic analysis is achieved for aerodynamic and structural nonlinearities simultaneously. The effects of the aerodynamic nonlinearity, initial flap amplitude, and freeplay magnitude in aeroelastic characteristics are investigated in this study.

This paper focuses on the performance evaluation of various control allocation methods applied on DURUMI-II UAV system. In order to implement control allocation scheme to aircraft control system, control system can be designed through two step design procedure. The first step is to design a baseline control system for an aircraft without consideration of control surface failure. The second step is to design a control allocator that maps the total control command on the individual control surfaces. In this paper, several control allocation methods such as Psuedo-Inverse CA method, Direct CA method, and Optimization CA method are implemented and integrated to the baseline flight control system of DURUMI-II UAV. The performance of these control allocation methods is evaluated by nonlinear simulation under the flight scenario of control surface failure.

In this study, transonic/supersonic nonlinear flutter analysis system of a complete aircraft including forced harmonic motion pf control surfaces has been effectively developed using the modified transonic small disturbance (TSD) equation. To consider the nonlinear effects, the coupled time marching method (CTM) combining computational structural dynamics (CFD) has been directly applied for aeroelastic computations. The grid system for a complex full aircraft configuration is effectively generated by the developed inhouse code. Intransonic and supersonic flight regimes, the characteristics of static and dynamic aeroelastic effect has been investigated for a complete aircraft model. Also, nonlinear flutter flight simulations for the forced harmonic motion of control surfaces are practically presented in detail.

This paper presents the design of an active flutter suppression system for flexible wing using sliding mode control method. The aerodynamic force generated by the motion of a flexible wing control surface is utilized as control force. For this purpose, aeroservoelastic model is formulated by blending aeroelastic model, control surface actuator model, and gust model. A sliding mode controller is designed for active flutter suppression on the aeroservoelastic model in conjunction with Kalman filter that estimates the system states based on the measured output. The performance of the designed controller is demonstrated via numerical simulation for the representative flexible wing model.

In this paper, the transonic aeroelastic behavior of the generic fighter model is investigated in the time domain. The simulation of flutter flight test using forced harmonic motion of control surfaces including inertial coupling effects is conducted at the various conditions. The nonlinear aerodynamic effects are considered using a transonic small disturbance equation. A modal model obtained by a free vibration analysis is used for the structural model. The relations between the computed flutter boundary and the simulation results of the responses using the harmonic motions of control surfaces at various conditions are investigated.

로켓 조종장치는 크게 추력방향 조종(TVC, Thrust Vector Control) 장치, 측면추력조종(Lateral Thrust Control) 장치 그리고 공기역학 조종면으로 분류할 수 있다. 조종장치의 공통된 특징은 모터가 작동하거나 유도탄이 비행할 때만 타의 효과가 발생한다는 점이다. 그러므로 조종장치를 개발하기 위해서는 이상류 초음속 유동이나 삼음속 이상의 자유유동(freestream)을 지상에서 효과적으로 모의할 수 있는 지상 시험장치가 필요하다. 이 시험장치에는 초음속 풍동과 유동 시험장치(cold-flow test stand), 그리고 6분력 트러스트 스텐드가 포함된다. 삼성항공은 우주용 추진기관의 성능을 지상에서 간단한 장치를 구현하여 시험할 수 있는 모의연소 시험장치, 노즐유동에 포함된 고체입자를 직접 수집할 수 있는 고체입자 포집장치 등 각종 시험장치를 제작하였다. 이를 바탕으로 차세대 전술유도탄의 핵심기술가운데 하나인 조종장치와 이를 효과적으로 개발하기 위한 지상 시험장치 확보에 착수하고 있다.
