Automatic Control of Aircraft

To derive linear aircraft flight dynamics plant for use in automatic flight control system design. To decouple aircraft dynamics into longitudinal and lateral-directional plants, and to briefly study the stability and control derivatives. To consider modeling of servo actuators for aircraft’s engine and control surfaces. To present single- and multi-variable automatic flight control systems (stability augmentation systems and autopilots) for both longitudinal and lateral-directional dynamics. To design and analyze aircraft control systems using both transfer function and state-space methods These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
