The Human Computer in Flight Control

IEEE Transactions on Electronic Computers, 1957
It is the unique decision-making ability which makes the human operator particularly suited to accomplish flight control computation. His decisions range from the simplest repetitive determination of control actions, each intended to minimize the error, to complex problems of the sequential reprogramming of all the lower levels of decision which, in ...

Robust Gain-Scheduled Flight Controller for an In-Flight Simulator

IEEE Transactions on Aerospace and Electronic Systems, 2020
In-Flight Simulators (IFSs) require flight controllers, which mimic other aircraft's dynamics in a certain operation range, which is the problem addressed in this paper. The design problem of a linear parameter-varying type gain-scheduled flight controller, which simultaneously suppresses gust effect and reproduces low-and-middle frequency commands as ...

In-flight cabin smoke control

Toxicology, 1996
Fatal accidents originating from in-flight cabin fires comprise only about 1% of all fatal accidents in the civil jet transport fleet. Nevertheless, the impossibility of escape during flight accentuates the hazards resulting from low visibility and toxic gases.

Acoustic Control in the Flight of Bats

Nature, 1945
PROF. HARTRIDGE has suggested1 a comparison between radar and acoustic range- and direction-finding in bats. He suggests that the interrupted supersonic note may be used to measure the range to obstacles. The note emitted lasts about 0·01 sec. During this time the first waves of the sound will travel about 10 ft.

Flight Controllers for Jet Transports

Human Factors: The Journal of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society, 1967
Several designs for flight controllers for jet transports were developed to improve panel visibility and pilot comfort. The designs were rated by a panel of 12 pilot-evaluators. Three of the designs—Dual Side-Arm, Yoke with a Vernier Handle, and Circumferential Drive with a Vernier Handle—met with sufficiently high acceptance that their further ...

Visual Control of Flight in the Fly

1984
The nervous system of the fly is estimated to consist of about 106 neurons. It is a complex system that can be studied at several different levels. The first level may be characterized as that at which the nature of the overall computation is expressed in the behavior of the organism.
