Designing for Human Factors in the Technology-Intensive Domain of Fighter Aircraft
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper aims at describing how to design for human factors in the technology-intensive domain of fighter aircraft. Similar to space industry, the fighter aircraft industry has to manage technology-intensive development where the end user often has implicit or explicit human factors requirements or expectations that has to be managed though design. This paper describes the specifics of the domain of fighter aircraft development with examples of what is special and design concepts to handle it. Specifically useful human factors’ considerations are highlighted and recommended approaches for managing human factors in development of fighter aircraft are described.

Robust Adaptive Attitude Stabilization of a Fighter Aircraft in the Presence of Input Constraints
The problem of attitude stabilization of a fighter aircraft is investigated in this paper. The practical aspects of a real physical system like existence of external disturbance with unknown upper bound and actuator saturation are considered in the process of controller design of this aircraft. In order to design a robust autopilot in the presence of the actuator saturation, the Composite Nonli...
متن کاملFlow Field Study Over the Wing of a Fighter-Type Aircraft Model
An extensive experimental investigation to study the flow structure over the wing of a fighter type configuration model has been conducted. The model used for this study was similar to the High Alpha Research Vehicle (HARV) that has been used in various European research centers for studying its force and moment characteristics. Tests were conducted at two subsonic speeds and at low to moderate...
متن کاملHuman-Centred Automation and the Development of Fighter Aircraft Support Systems
In modern fighter aircraft, several fully automatic or semi-automatic support systems have been implemented so as to aid the pilots in performing their tasks and accomplishing their missions. However, both positive and negative effects of automation have been reported. Amongst the positive effects, decreased physical workload and increased situation awareness have been documented. Amongst the n...
متن کاملHuman-Centred Automation of Threat Evaluation in Future Fighter Aircraft
It has long been considered crucial to develop decision support systems that aid fighter pilots achieve their goals. Such systems often require automation of tasks formerly performed manually by the pilots, in situations characterized by huge amounts of (possibly uncertain and incomplete) sensor data and contextual information, time-pressure and dynamically changing tasks. Thus, careful investi...
متن کاملDesigning and Modeling a Control System for Aircraft in the Presence of Wind Disturbance (TECHNICAL NOTE)
This paper proposes a switching adaptive control for trajectory tracking of unmanned aircraft systems. The switching adaptive control method is designed to overcome the wind disturbance and achieve a proper tracking performance for control systems. In the suggested system, the wind disturbance is regarded as a finite set of uncertainties; a controller is designed for each uncertainty, and a per...
