Flight Systems and Control : A Practical Approach by Tian Seng Ng - 1 recurso en línea (XXV, 241 páginas) 206 ilustraciones, 163 ilustraciones a color - Springer Aerospace Technology, 1869-1730 Engineering (Springer-11647) .

Introduction -- Flight Mechanics -- Navigational Modules -- Flight Simulator Systems -- Tandem Rotor Helicopter Control -- Unmanned Aerial Vehicle System -- Rotorcrafts -- Flight Instrumentation Acquisition -- Recent And Future Developments.

This book focuses on flight vehicles and their navigational systems, discussing different forms of flight structures and their control systems, from fixed wings to rotary crafts. Software simulation enables testing of the hardware without actual implementation, and the flight simulators, mechanics, glider development and navigation systems presented here are suitable for lab-based experimentation studies. It explores laboratory testing of flight navigational sensors, such as the magnetic, acceleration and Global Positioning System (GPS) units, and illustrates the six-axis inertial measurement unit (IMU) instrumentation as well as its data acquisition methodology. The book offers an introduction to the various unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) systems and their accessories, including the linear quadratic regulator (LQR) method for controlling the rotorcraft. It also describes a Matrix Laboratory (MATLAB) control algorithm that simulates and runs the lab-based 3 degrees of freedom (DOF) helicopter, as well as LabVIEW software used to validate controller design and data acquisition. Lastly, the book explores future developments in aviation techniques.
