Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The flight path dynamics of aircraft are often characterized by the presence of a right-half plane zero in the elevator-to-flight path angle transfer function. For most aircraft, the frequency of this zero is high enough that it does not limit the bandwidth of the flight control system. This is not the case, however, with air-breathing hypersonic aircraft. This class of aircraft is characterized by unstable longitudinal dynamics, strong loop interactions, and the presence of non-minimum phase transmission zeros. In the case of flight-path angle and velocity control, the presence of a low frequency transmission zero severely limits the achievable bandwidth. We show that the frequency of the zero is related to the instantaneous center-of-rotation of the aircraft, which is dependent upon the amount of lift produced by the longitudinal control effectors. In order to improve flight-path control, we investigate the feasibility of an aircraft configured with redundant pitch control effectors. The additional effector moves the instantaneous center-of-rotation, and as a result, the location of the zero. The trade-off is that the path-attitude decoupling inherent in hypersonic aircraft becomes more pronounced. Results are given for both a rigid hypersonic aircraft model and a model that includes the effects of the first fuselage bending mode.

Book Synopsis Nonlinear Adaptive Controller Design for Air-breathing Hypersonic Vehicles by : Lisa Fiorentini
Download or read book Nonlinear Adaptive Controller Design for Air-breathing Hypersonic Vehicles written by Lisa Fiorentini and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: This dissertation presents the design of two nonlinear robust controllers for an air-breathing hypersonic vehicle model capable of providing stable tracking of velocity and altitude (or flight-path angle) reference trajectories. To overcome the analytical intractability of a dynamical model derived from first principles, a simplified control-oriented model is used for control design. The control-oriented model retains the most important features of the model from which it was derived, including the non-minimum phase characteristic of the flight-path angle dynamics and strong couplings between the engine and flight dynamics. The first control design considers as control inputs the fuel equivalence ratio and the elevator and canard deflections. A combination of nonlinear sequential loop-closure and adaptive dynamic inversion has been adopted for the design of a dynamic state-feedback controller. An important contribution given by this work is the complete characterization of the internal dynamics of the model has been derived for Lyapunov-based stability analysis of the closed-loop system, which includes the structural dynamics. The results obtained address the issue of stability robustness with respect to both parametric model uncertainty, which naturally arises in adopting reduced-complexity models for control design, and dynamic perturbations due to the flexible dynamics. In the second control design a first step has been taken in extending those results in the case in which only two control inputs are available, namely the fuel equivalence ratio and the elevator deflection. The extension of these results to this new framework is not trivial since several issues arise. First of all, the vehicle dynamics are characterized by exponentially unstable zero-dynamics when longitudinal velocity and flight-path angle are selected as regulated output. This non-minimum phase behavior arises as a consequence of elevator-to-lift coupling. In the previous design the canard was strategically used to adaptively decouple lift from elevator command, thus rendering the system minimum phase. Moreover, the canard input was also employed to enforce the equilibrium at the desired trim condition and to provide a supplementary stabilizing action. As a result, when this control input is not assumed to be available, the fact that the system needs to be augmented with an integrator (to reconstruct the desired equilibrium) and the non-minimum phase behavior have a strong impact on the control design. In these preliminary results the flexible effects are not taken into account in the stability analysis but are considered as a perturbation and included in the simulation model. The approach considered utilizes a combination of adaptive and robust design methods based on both classical and recently developed nonlinear design tools. As a result, the issue of robustness with respect to parameter uncertainties is addressed also in this control design. Simulation results on the full nonlinear model show the effectiveness of both controllers.

Book Synopsis Output Feedback Control and Sensor Placement for a Hypersonic Vehicle Model by : Pete Jankovsky
Download or read book Output Feedback Control and Sensor Placement for a Hypersonic Vehicle Model written by Pete Jankovsky and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper addresses issues related to output feedback control, including sensor placement, for a model of an air-breathing hypersonic vehicle. The model presents a number of control challenges, in particular because of strong couplings between the propulsive and aerodynamic forces. Because of the vehicle's low weight, slenderness, and length, the vehicle's flexibility has a large impact on stability and control of the vehicle. Two output feedback control methods are developed. One applies reconstruction of the flexible body system states, toward applications of state feedback control. The other uses a robust design that does not rely on an observer to ensure stabilization and performance throughout a given flight envelope. A rate gyroscope and an accelerometer have been modeled, incorporating the flexible effects, and strategies for sensor placement have been developed for the hypersonic vehicle model to enhance observability or to preserve certain system structures that are favorable for robust control design. Simulation results are provided to demonstrate the sensor placement strategies and output feedback control performances.
Book Synopsis Adaptive Dynamic Programming: Single and Multiple Controllers by : Ruizhuo Song
Download or read book Adaptive Dynamic Programming: Single and Multiple Controllers written by Ruizhuo Song and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-12-28 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a class of novel optimal control methods and games schemes based on adaptive dynamic programming techniques. For systems with one control input, the ADP-based optimal control is designed for different objectives, while for systems with multi-players, the optimal control inputs are proposed based on games. In order to verify the effectiveness of the proposed methods, the book analyzes the properties of the adaptive dynamic programming methods, including convergence of the iterative value functions and the stability of the system under the iterative control laws. Further, to substantiate the mathematical analysis, it presents various application examples, which provide reference to real-world practices.

This book was released on 2007 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: This thesis presents the design of two nonlinear robust controllers for an air-breathing hypersonic vehicle model. To overcome the analytical intractability of a dynamical model derived from first principles, a simplified control-oriented model is used for control design. The control-oriented model retains most of the features of the original model, including non-minimum phase characteristic of the flight-path angle dynamics and strong couplings between the engine and flight dynamics, whereas flexibility effects, included in the simulation model, are regarded as a dynamic perturbation. In adopting reduced-complexity models for controller design, the issue of robustness with respect to model uncertainty must be carefully addressed and included at the design level. Dynamic inversion-based design methods do not lend themselves easily to quantitative robustness analysis, due to the complexity of the inverse model of the plant. In this work, a nonlinear sequential loop-closure approach is adopted to design two different dynamic state-feedback controllers that provide stable tracking of velocity and altitude reference trajectories. The approach considered utilizes a combination of adaptive and robust design methods based on both classical and recently developed nonlinear design tools. Simulation results indicate that the proposed methodology may constitute a feasible approach towards the development of robust nonlinear controllers that satisfactorily address the issue of model uncertainty for this type of application.

Book Synopsis Geometry Modeling and Adaptive Control of Air-breathing Hypersonic Vehicles by : Tyler J. Vick
Download or read book Geometry Modeling and Adaptive Control of Air-breathing Hypersonic Vehicles written by Tyler J. Vick and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Air-breathing hypersonic vehicles have the potential to provide global reach and affordable access to space. Recent technological advancements have made scramjet-powered flight achievable, as evidenced by the successes of the X-43A and X-51A flight test programs over the last decade. Air-breathing hypersonic vehicles present unique modeling and control challenges in large part due to the fact that scramjet propulsion systems are highly integrated into the airframe, resulting in strongly coupled and often unstable dynamics. Additionally, the extreme flight conditions and inability to test fully integrated vehicle systems larger than X-51 before flight leads to inherent uncertainty in hypersonic flight. This thesis presents a means to design vehicle geometries, simulate vehicle dynamics, and develop and analyze control systems for hypersonic vehicles. First, a software tool for generating three-dimensional watertight vehicle surface meshes from simple design parameters is developed. These surface meshes are compatible with existing vehicle analysis tools, with which databases of aerodynamic and propulsive forces and moments can be constructed. A six-degree-of-freedom nonlinear dynamics simulation model which incorporates this data is presented. Inner-loop longitudinal and lateral control systems are designed and analyzed utilizing the simulation model. The first is an output feedback proportional-integral linear controller designed using linear quadratic regulator techniques. The second is a model reference adaptive controller (MRAC) which augments this baseline linear controller with an adaptive element. The performance and robustness of each controller are analyzed through simulated time responses to angle-of-attack and bank angle commands, while various uncertainties are introduced. The MRAC architecture enables the controller to adapt in a nonlinear fashion to deviations from the desired response, allowing for improved tracking performance, stability, and robustness.

This book was released on 2010 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis examines the modeling, analysis, and control system design issues for scramjet powered hypersonic vehicles. A nonlinear three degrees of freedom longitudinal model which includes aero-propulsion-elasticity effects was used for all analysis. This model is based upon classical compressible flow and Euler-Bernouli structural concepts. Higher fidelity computational fluid dynamics and finite elementmethods are needed formore precise intermediate and final evaluations. The methods presented within this thesis were shown to be useful for guiding initial control relevant design. The model was used to examine the vehicles static and dynamic characteristics over the vehicles trimmable region. The vehicle has significant longitudinal coupling between the fuel equivalency ratio (FER) and the flight path angle (FPA). For control system design, a two-input two-output plant (FER - elevator to speed-FPA) with 11 states (including 3 flexible modes) was used. Velocity, FPA, and pitch were assumed to be available for feedback.
