Compound Control for Hydraulic Flight Motion Simulator

Model based control of a flight simulator motion system

Fuzzy Sliding Mode Control of a Flight Simulator Motion Base

The purpose of this study is to apply sliding mode control integrated with fuzzy control for a six degree of freedom flight simulator motion system. Fuzzy logic control is included for reducing chattering phenomena. Forward and inverse kinematics and full dynamic model of six degrees of freedom motion base driven by electromechanical actuators are briefly presented. As a initial control design,...

Control methods in a supernatural flight simulator

This video presents the experimental setup of an immersive flight simulation system, which combines body tracking with a headmounted display. Users are hanging freely in a climbing harness in order to improve the impression to fly. The base system was created by a group of students during one semester as a bachelor project. A study revealed that a high degree of presence is achievable by the co...

Motion Primitives for Robotic Flight Control

We introduce a simple framework for learning aggressive maneuvers in flight control of UAVs. Having inspired from biological environment, dynamic movement primitives are analyzed and extended using nonlinear contraction theory. Accordingly, primitives of an observed movement are stably combined and concatenated. We demonstrate our results experimentally on the Quanser Helicopter, in which we fi...

High Frequency Modeling of a Hydraulic Actuation Flight Control System

The objective of this work was to develop a high fidelity model representative on high frequencies of a FCS with an active-active hydraulic actuation. The performance for step input and frequency response were analyzed, showing to be a model close to a real system and representative even in high frequencies.
