Satellite communications for aeronautical applications: recent research and development results

Communications systems have always been a critical element in aviation. Until recently, nearly all communications between the ground and aircraft have been based on analog voice technology. But the future of global aviation requires a more sophisticated "information infrastructure" which not only provides more and better communications, but integrates the key information functions (communicatio...

Group for Aeronautical Research and Technology in Europe

A computer assisted modelling methodology is developed for the generation of linearized models with parametric uncertainties described by linear fractional transformations. The starting point of the uncertainty modelling is a class of generic nonlinear aircraft models with explicit parametric dependence used for simulation purposes. The proposed methodology integrates specialized software tools...

Ministry of Technology Aeronautical Research Council Reports and Memoranda

This Report describes investigations on spanwise non-uniformity in boundary-layer flow at low subsonic speeds over a range of experimental conditions, covering particularly the effect of varying number and open-air ratio of screens, type of honeycomb, flow contraction, surface curvature, and downstream position of measuring plane. Regions with laminar and turbulent boundary layers were investig...
