This paper considers the performance of a gain scheduled flight control law for an aeroelastic aircraft. A nonlinear aeroelastic model of the Rockwell B-1 Lancer is used as the application example. Gain scheduling via interpolation of point designs is the predominant method used in industry to develop a full-envelope flight control law. Certification and validation of these nonlinear gain-scheduled...
Model-based fault detection methods can be used to reduce the size, weight, and cost of safety-critical aerospace systems. However, the implementation of these methods is based on models. Therefore, disturbance and model uncertainty must be considered in order to certify the fault detection system. This paper considers the worst-case false alarm probability over a class of stochastic disturbances...
Aircraft pitot-static probes are essential to airspeed and altitude measurements and safe flight. Measurement integrity is typically achieved via sensor hardware redundancy and a voting system. Hardware redundancy imposes a cost and payload penalty. This paper investigates an analytical alternative to hardware redundancy requiring a mathematical model of faulted and unfaulted pitot-static probes....
