Practical aspects of modeling aircraft dynamics from flight data [PDF]

, 1984
The purpose of parameter estimation, a subset of system identification, is to estimate the coefficients (such as stability and control derivatives) of the aircraft differential equations of motion from sampled measured dynamic responses. In the past, the

Direct Yaw Moment Control for Enhancing Handling Quality of Lightweight Electric Vehicles with Large Load-To-Curb Weight Ratio

Applied Sciences, 2019
In this paper a vehicle dynamics control system is designed to compensate the change in vehicle handling dynamics of lightweight vehicles due to variation in loading conditions and the effectiveness of the proposed design is verified by simulations and ...

Aircraft control system [PDF]

, 1973
An aircraft control system is described which is particularly suited to rotary wing aircraft. Longitudinal acceleration and course rate commands are derived from a manual control stick to control translational velocity of the aircraft along a flight path.

Integrated Control With DYC and DSS for 4WID Electric Vehicles

IEEE Access, 2019
This paper investigates the front-wheel differential steering system (DSS) for a four-wheel independent-drive (4WID) electric vehicle (EV) with a steer-by-wire (SBW) system in case of the steering failure.

On Nonlinear Model Predictive Vehicle Dynamics Control for Multi-Actuated Car-Semitrailer Configurations

IEEE Access
Although the literature includes examples of model predictive controllers for trailer sway mitigation through direct yaw moment control in car-semitrailer configurations, the available studies do not consider the integration of direct yaw moment control ...
