A computer program that can estimate static, dynamic stability and control derivatives using a subsonic-supersonic panel method is developed. The panel method uses subsonic-supersonic source and elementary horse shoe vortex distributions, and their strengths are determined by solving the boundary condition approximated with a thin body assumption. In addition, quasi-steady analysis on the body fixed coordinate system allows the estimation of damping coefficients of aircraft 3 axes. The code is validated by comparing the neutral point, roll and pitch damping of delta wings with published analysis results. Finally, the static, dynamic stability and control derivatives of F-18 are compared with experimental data as well as other numerical results to show the accuracy and the usefulness of the code.

This paper presents the computations of the longitudinal and directional stability derivatives for the SDM(Standard Dynamic Model). The static and dynamic derivatives are evaluated at once using forced harmonic oscillations in the pitch and yaw directions. For the numerical simulations, a 3-D Euler solver that uses a dual time stepping method for unsteady time accurate simulations is applied. This work investigates the variation of the derivatives in terms of the Mach number and the several motion parameters. Good agreement of the pitch and yaw stability derivatives with previously published numerical results and experimental results are observed.

In this paper, the captive model test of a submarine using the RA test was carried out in a square basin. The target model submarine consisted of four types varying according to the position of conning tower and control planes. Hydrodynamic derivatives were acquired by multi-regression analysis. As a result, horizontal dynamic stability indexes of the four types presented positive values and satisfied dynamic stability requirements. In addition, the stability index of type 1 and type 4 - each with the same cruciform configuration of the aft planes - scored within the acceptable range of motion stability.

This Paper described the simulation program development for helicopter. In the design of flight control system to accomplish some special missions like UAV, it is important to minimize the execution time obtaining a linear model from nonlinear model that is used for design of controller. The first step for this kind of purpose is to complete a nonlinear model that contains full dynamic characteristics. The second step is to get the trim values that are obtained from the nonlinear model by solving an algebraic equation. And then stability and control derivatives are derived through hovering to forward flight by numerical perturbation that will be used for linear model for a specified flight condition. The software program(HeliSim) is developed by using MATLAB GUI and will provide easy modeling procedure. The suggested method in this paper is much more simpler than any other method like a fully scale helicopter model. The advantage of our suggested method will reduce the computational time due to simple formula to extract a linear model from nonlinear model that will be beneficially used for flight control system of unmanned helicopter by some reduction of computational load.

In this experimental study, the dynamic stability derivatives of a tailless lambda-shape UAV are estimated from time history data of aerodynamic moments measured from the internal balance while the test model is forced to oscillate at given frequencies and amplitudes. A 3-axis forced oscillation apparatus is designed to induce decoupled roll, yaw, pitch oscillations respectively. The results show that the roll damping derivatives remain stable at the entire range of angle of attack tested, whereas the pitch damping derivatives become unstable beyond $15^{\circ}$ angle of attack. The amplitude and frequency have little impact on roll damping derivatives while the smaller amplitude and frequency of oscillation improves the pitch stability. The yaw damping derivative values are fairly small as expected for a tailless configuration. The results indicate that the proposed methodology and test apparatus area valid for estimating the dynamic stability derivatives of a tailless UAV.

본 연구는 호안보호공 중 하천 바닥 또는 제방의 유지시설로 많이 쓰이는 사석의 안정성 분석을 위하여 수리실험을 실시하였다. 안정성 분석을 위해 Isbash식, Netherlands 간이공식, ASCE식, Pilarczk식, Maynord식을 검토하였다. 실험결과 사석의 직경이 커짐에 따라 한계유속이 증가하였고, 형상계수가 커지면 한계유속이 증하하였다. 또한 랜덤배열일 때보다 규칙배열일 경우 한계유속이 크게 측정 되었다. 이로서 형상계수와 인터로킹의 정도가 사석의 안정성에 중요한 함수라는 것을 나타낸다. 사석은 Maynord의 직경공식과 미 California주 정부 중량공식이 적합하게 나왔고, 모형사석의 규칙배열에서는 Pilarczk의 직경공식과 Netherlands 간이 무게공식이 적합하였다. 모형사석의 랜덤배열시에는 Isbash 공식이 적합하였다. Isbash 공식과 직경산정에 형상계수를 대입하여 새로운 식을 개발하였다. 이는 기존공식의 적용성을 더 개선할 수 있으리라고 기대된다.

In this study, for development of the MDO (Multi Disciplinary Optimization) framework, the flight dynamic characteristic parameters of the ChangGong-91, a light aircraft, were extracted by an analytical method based on various semi-empirical methods, and the flight test method was compared and evaluated. The semi-empirical analysis methods for comparative subjects were the Perkins method, McCormick method, and Smetana method. The major stability/control derivatives and dynamic factors were calculated, using each method. As the comparison criteria, the flight test derivative estimates and dynamic factors were processed, using the output error method. Additionally, the flight characteristics of the light aircraft were analyzed and evaluated according to the provisions of the Korean Airworthiness Standard (KAS) of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, and MIL-F-8785C for the U.S. military.

Three dimentional unsteady Euler equations are solved and an integration method is presented to predict the dynamic stability derivatives of transonic missiles. Results for the Basic Finner model are compared with several experimental data to vaildate the prediction capability of the present method. The variations of dynamic stability derivatives are discussed with respect to angle of attack, Mach number, and rotation rate. Results show that shock waves between fins enhance the pitch-damping characteristics in transonic region. Results also imply that the Euler equations can give the damping coefficients with comparable accuracy.

In this paper, a reconfigurable model following flight control method is proposed based on direct adaptive scheme using parameter estimation. Adaptive control scheme updates the control gains to make the system output follow the reference output even when fault occurs. By adopting the frequency domain parameter estimation method, system changes by the fault can be estimated. Recursive Fourier transformation is used for system identification. Using recursive Fourier transform, the proposed adaptive control algorithm guarantees the system stability and improves the system characteristics. To evaluate the performance of proposed control method, numerical simulations are performed.
