In this paper, the helicopter flight control system using online adaptive neural networks which have the universal function approximation property is considered. It is not compensation for modeling errors but approximation two functions required for feedback linearization control action from input/output of the system. To guarantee the tracking performance and the stability of the closed loop system replaced two nonlinear functions by two neural networks, weight update laws are provided by Lyapunov function and the simulation results in low speed flight mode verified the performance of the control system with the neural networks.

Dynamic model for supersonic engine is proposed to design control law. The model structure is constructed to capture the local characteristics of supersonic and subsonic flow by using conservation equations. To evaluate the stability of control law under the disturbances, the air turbulence model is incorporated with the engine model. The combined model shows analogous results compared to performance analysis model which is good coincidence with CFD results and disturbance effects.

Two methods are applied to the problem of trajectory optimization for launch vehicles which burn solid propellant. One is 'Optimal Control' theory, the other is 'NonLinear Programming' method. Trajectory optimization for solid rocket motors has a special problem. The special problem is that the payload of launch vehicle is not the function of control variable. This paper deals with this special problem.

Accidents caused by upset condition leads to fatal damage to both manned and unmanned aircraft. This paper deals with real-time detection of these aircraft upset situations to prevent further severe situations. Firstly, the difference between sensor measurement and predicted measurement from Extended Kalman filter is monitored to determine whether a target aircraft goes into an upset condition or not. In addition, repeating the time update stage of the Extended Kalman filter for a specific length of time can enable future upset situation prediction. The results of aforementioned both the approaches will build a bridge to upset prevention for future generation of manned/unmanned aircraft.

The flight control of aircraft, which has nonlinear time-varying dynamic characteristics depending on the various and unexpected external conditions, can be performed on two motions: longitudinal motion and lateral motion. In the longitudinal motion control of aircraft, pitch and trust are major control parameters and roll and yaw are control ones in the lateral motion control. Until now, a number of efficient and reliable control schemes that can guarantee the stability and maneuverability of the aircraft have been developed. Recently, the intelligent flight control scheme, which differs from the conventional control strategy requiring the various and complicate procedures such as the wind tunnel and environmental experiments, has attracted attention. In this paper, an intelligent longitudinal control scheme has been proposed utilizing Interval Type-2 fuzzy logic which can be recognized as a representative intelligent control methodology. The results will be verified through computer simulation with a F-4 jet fighter.

This paper deals with an acceleration controller design for a kill vehicle equipped with a divert and attitude control system (DACS). In the proposed method, the attitude control system (ACS) is used to produce the thrust command to nullify angle-of-attack. For the angle-of-attack control, a nonlinear angle-of-attack controller is proposed based on the feedback linearization methodology. Since the flight path angle is identical to the attitude angle under the condition of zero angle-of-attack, the divert control system (DCS) can directly produce the lateral acceleration which is demanded from the guidance loop. In the proposed method, we can minimize the aerodynamic uncertainty due to the propulsive force. Additionally, we can simplify the operation logic of DCS and ACS. In this paper, nonlinear simulations are performed to show the performance of the proposed method.

Quadrotors relatively smaller and lighter than other aircraft have a disadvantage of being sensitive to the external disturbances. In order to solve this disadvantage, many studies have been conducted by various control techniques robust to disturbances. In this paper, CMGs (Control Moment Gyros) introducing relatively large control torque with an identical amount of electric powers are applied to cancel the external disturbances. Two CMGs are considered to control the attitude of quadrotors so that a multi-copter installed with two CMGs and four rotors are introduced for this work. Finally, to verify the control performance of the proposed system by the CMGs, a numerical simulation conducted in the given harsh environment.

In this paper, a higher harmonic control (HHC) methodology is applied to find the optimum input scenario for the vibratory hub loads reduction. A comprehensive aeroelastic analysis code, CAMRAD II, is used to model the HART (Higher-harmonic-control Aeroacoustic Rotor Test) II rotor, and parametric study is conducted for the best HHC inputs leading to a minimum vibration (MV) condition. The resulting outcomes are compared with the earlier HART II test results. It is indicated that the control input adopted in the MV condition showed less satisfactory results. The new MV condition obtained in the present investigation can achieve 45% lower vibration level than the baseline uncontrolled condition. The optimum HHC input results lead to 3/rev harmonic input having $0.8^{\circ}$ amplitude and $350^{\circ}$ phase angle. About 5% reduction in the required power is possible but accompanies with the increase of vibration level.

This paper contains impulsive maneuver which considers fuel consumption balance of chief satellite and deputy satellite in satellite formation flying. Thrust input is obtained by Lagrange' Multiplier method which is constructed by cost function with weight parameter of each satellite. Energy matching constraint is applied for boundedness of relative orbit, and theoretical solutions are verified by simulation results. Simulations are divided into two scenarios, with or without air-drag effect. This paper's results are expected to be used in real satellite formation flying, when fuel-balancing impulsive maneuver for relative orbit boundedness is needed.
