This paper describes the Flight Dynamics Automation (FDA) system for COMS Flight Dynamics System (FDS) and its test result in terms of the performance of the automation jobs. FDA controls the flight dynamics functions such as orbit determination, orbit prediction, event prediction, and fuel accounting. The designed FDA is independent from the specific characteristics which are defined by spacecraft manufacturer or specific satellite missions. Therefore, FDA could easily links its autonomous job control functions to any satellite mission control system with some interface modification. By adding autonomous system along with flight dynamics system, it decreases the operator's tedious and repeated jobs but increase the usability and reliability of the system. Therefore, FDA is used to improve the completeness of whole mission control system's quality. The FDA is applied to the real flight dynamics system of a geostationary satellite, COMS and the experimental test is performed. The experimental result shows the stability and reliability of the mission control operations through the automatic job control.

The free-wing tilt-body aircraft is researched in the flight performance characteristics such as short take-off and landing capability, and reduced sensitivity to gust and center of gravity (CG) change. Due to the main wing separating from the fuselage, the high tiltable empennage, and the stub-wing strongly influencing from the propeller wake, the resulting vehicle aerodynamics and flight dynamics are quite different from those of a conventional fixed-wing aircraft. Using the governing flight dynamics model was studied previously, all of speed and body tilt angle is simulated to determine the flight envelope by a non-linear 3-DOF flight simulation analysis. Though flight performance and trimmability are studied, the flight model of free-wing tilt-body aircraft is to reduce the hidden risk and to achieve the successful flight test. It is analyzed the flight characteristics that distinguishes free-wing tilt-body aircraft from the conventional aircraft.

본 논문에서는 비행 중 비행체 표면에 작용하는 음향하중 예측을 수행하였다. 비행 중 음향하중은 비행체 표면의 압력 변동에 의해 발생한다. 기존의 비행 중 음향하중 예측방법은 반경험적 방법으로 이론과 실험 결과를 기반으로 도출한 경험식을 활용한다. 하지만 경험식의 입력 값으로 사용되는 비행체 주변 유동특성 및 경계층 파라미터를 매번 실험을 통해 얻는 것에는 한계가 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 전산유체해석(Computational Fluid Dynamics, CFD) 결과를 반경험적 방법과 혼합하는 하이브리드 방법을 이용하여 비행 중 비행체에 작용하는 음향하중을 예측하였다. Cone-cylinder-flare 형상 비행체에 대해 아음속, 천음속, 초음속, 최대동압도달(Maximum dynamic pressure, Max-q) 시점의 비행 환경에 대한 음향하중 예측을 수행하였다. 하이브리드 방법 적용 시 전산유체해석결과를 기반으로 한 경계층 끝단 영역 판단 방법에 대해 비교하였고 여러 연구자에 의해 제시된 경험식에 따른 음향하중 예측결과를 비교하였다.

This paper presents a control effectiveness analysis of the hawkmoth Manduca sexta. A multibody dynamic model of the insect that considers the time-varying inertia of two flapping wings is established, based on measurement data from the real hawkmoth. A six-degree-of-freedom (6-DOF) multibody flight dynamics simulation environment is used to analyze the effectiveness of the control variables defined in a wing kinematics function. The aerodynamics from complex wing flapping motions is estimated by a blade element approach, including translational and rotational force coefficients derived from relevant experimental studies. Control characteristics of flight dynamics with respect to the changes of three angular degrees of freedom (stroke positional, feathering, and deviation angle) of the wing kinematics are investigated. Results show that the symmetric (asymmetric) wing kinematics change of each wing only affects the longitudinal (lateral) flight forces and moments, which implies that the longitudinal and lateral flight controls are decoupled. However, there are coupling effects within each plane of motion. In the longitudinal plane, pitch and forward/backward motion controls are coupled; in the lateral plane, roll and side-translation motion controls are coupled.

This paper presents the comparison of Euler-Rodrigues quaternion and Euler Angles using attitude kinematics for aircraft flight simulation. It is hard for PC-Level to accomplish real-time simulation. The purpose of this paper is to accomplish real-time simulation of the aircraft dynamics modeling parts and the graphics parts. The computation time is more reduced in case of applying quaternions than Euler Angles. This paper provides a quaternions algorithm and it's applications for the real-time simulation.

Automation of the key flight dynamics operations for the geostationary orbit satellite mission is analyzed and designed. The automation includes satellite orbit determination, orbit prediction, event prediction, and fuel accounting. An object-oriented analysis and design methodology is used for design of the automation system. Automation scenarios are investigated first and then the scenarios are allocated to use cases. Sequences of the use cases are diagramed. Then software components and graphical user interfaces are designed for automation. The automation will be applied to the Communication, Ocean, and Meteorology Satellite (COMS) flight dynamics system for daily routine operations.

FAA AC120-40B Level D flight dynamics model for T-50 Full Mission Trainer was successfully developed. Since AC120-40B Level D requires the quantitative validation tests for simulation model compared with flight test data, T-50 flight test data for each validation test item was gathered, and also automatic test environments which include AFT (Automatic Fidelity Tester) and STA (Simulation Test Analyzer) were developed. The final test results after the iterative test-tuning processes were all within the tolerances specified in AC120-40B Level D. Qualification Test Guide, QTG contains the detail test processes and results.

본 연구는 도심 지역에서 드론 비행 경로의 계획과 안전성 평가를 개선하기 위해 CFD(Computational Fluid Dynamics)를 활용하는 방법을 제시한다. 도심 지역에서의 드론 비행은 빠르게 증가하고 있는데, 아직 경로 계획 및 안전성 평가 방법이 정립되어 있지 않으며 실험적으로 접근하고 있어 위험성이 높은 문제가 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 CFD를 활용하여 드론과 건물 간 복잡한 3D 공간에서의 유체 역학을 고려한 비행 경로를 계획하고, 각 경로의 안전성을 정량적으로 평가하였다. 이를 위해 김천 혁신도시를 대상 지역으로 설정하여 지형과 건물 데이터 수집 및 비행 예상 경로를 선정하였다. CFD 유동 해석을 통해 비행 시뮬레이션과 안전성 평가를 위한 기본 데이터를 마련하였으며 이를 통해 드론이 제안된 비행 경로로 비행하였을 때 환경 유동에 의한 안전성 평가를 수행하였다.

Korea Pathfinder Lunar Orbiter (KPLO), also known as Danuri, was successfully launched on 4 Aug. from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station using a Space-X Falcon-9 rocket. Flight dynamics (FD) operational readiness was one of the critical parts to be checked before the flight. To demonstrate FD software's readiness and enhance the operator's contingency response capabilities, KPLO FD specialists planned, organized, and conducted four simulations and two rehearsals before the KPLO launch. For the efficiency and integrity of FD simulation and rehearsal, different sets of blind test data were prepared, including the simulated tracking measurements that incorporated dynamical model errors, maneuver execution errors, and other errors associated with a tracking system. This paper presents the simulation and rehearsal results with lessons learned for the KPLO FD operational readiness checkout. As a result, every functionality of FD operation systems is firmly secured based on the operation procedure with an enhancement of contingency operational response capability. After conducting several simulations and rehearsals, KPLO FD specialists were much more confident in the flight teams' ability to overcome the challenges in a realistic flight and FD software's reliability in flying the KPLO. Moreover, the results of this work will provide numerous insights to the FD experts willing to prepare deep space flight operations.
