A computer-aided design software package for nonlinear control synthesis is discussed. The software incorporates five different modern nonlinear control methods. The versatility of the software lies in its ability to develop nonlinear controllers using a simulation model. As a result, models of arbitrary complexity can be used in the control law development. The use of the design software is il...

Because the Polish Air Force currently uses F-16 and MiG-29 aircraft, aim of study was to conduct a comparison susceptibility destruction in combat these two aircraft. The first part work concerned analysis individual critical components, such as: general characteristics airframe structure, aircraft engine, flight control system, fuel weapons, radar system. index defined considering listed comp...

This paper proposes a time-varying sliding mode control method to address nonlinear missile body kinematics based on the suboptimal theory. The analytical solution of surface and corresponding law are obtained by solving state-dependent Riccati equation analytically. Then, Lyapunov is used analyze motion trend in asymptotic stability closed-loop system validated. transformed form pseudo-angle-o...

Apparent design breakthroughs in short-range missile defense systems such as Theater High-Altitude Air Defense (THAAD) have prompted questions about the legality of such systems under the 1972 Antiballistic Missile (ABM) Treaty. Prominent physicists have used computer “footprint” methodology to prove that if engineered to specifications, THAAD might exceed ABM Treaty performance limits banning ...
