Hands-on training and operation is generally considered the primary means that a user of a complex system will use to build a mental model of how that system works. However, accidents abound where a major contributing factor was user disorientation/misorientation with respect to the automation behavior, even when the operator was a seasoned user. This paper presents a compact graphical method t...

Abstract Rotorcraft suffer from relatively high vibratory levels, due to exposure significant load levels originating rotors. As a result, pilots are typically exposed vibrations, which have non-negligible consequences. Among those, one important issue is the degradation of instrument reading, result complex human-machine interaction. Both involuntary acceleration eyes as biodynamics and vibrat...

The use of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) in civilian and domestic applications is highly demanding, requiring a high-level of capability from the vehicles. This work addresses the design and implementation of a vision-based feature tracker for an autonomous helicopter. Using vision in the control loop allows estimating the position and velocity of a set of features with respect to the helicop...

In recent years advances in technical safety of large helicopters have been achieved through the implementation of Health and Usage Monitoring Systems (HUMS). These systems have provided improved information on the integrity of the helicopter powertrain. All HUM systems have been introduced on the back of a mandatory requirement to fit Flight Data Recorders (FDRs). Until now, however, the fligh...

The family is a place where each member grows and flourishes, might be likened to house that must correlate between every aspect of the element in it. Relationships not only talk about relationships but also correlation have connection other. Family circumstances should emphasize an awareness essence family, one marked by definite precise limits on application. A single upbringing something has...

Helicopters in flight are unstable, and hovering at one spot requires the pilot to do a considerable amount of active control. To date, it is still under discussion which sensory cues helicopter pilots use for this stabilization task, and how these cues are combined. Here we investigated how cues from different sensory modalities (visual cues and body cues) are used when humans stabilize a simu...

A two-layer robust control scheme is proposed to get a better response ability for emergency maneuvers of helicopter. Note that the power used in ascending flight is the main coupling between helicopter and its turboshaft engines; therefore vertical flight control is separated from conventional helicopter control loops and combined with fuel flow and turbine bleeding to new control loops denote...
