| Book Description | This book can be used to develop simple or complex dynamic models of generic flight vehicles (atmospheric or spacecraft) controlled by multiple types of effectors such as, engines, TVC, aero-surfaces, reaction jets, reaction-wheels, and CMGs. The book can also be used in predicting the performance and characteristics of new flight vehicle concepts based on vehicle data, such as, aerodynamic parameters, mass properties, trajectories, etc. The book begins with the basic flight vehicle dynamics. Then the equation of motion is extended to include more advanced dynamic effects. The derivation of a mixing logic for combining multiple types of effectors is included, and also an algorithm for trimming multiple types of effectors. There is also a chapter describing methods for evaluating performance characteristics of flight vehicles directly from data, bypassing the dynamic analysis. The book includes theoretical material and multiple design examples of: aircraft, launch vehicles, re-entry vehicles, and rocket-planes, with detailed information that is typically not included in technical papers or other textbooks. The examples demonstrate complete designs, provide hands-on experience and are useful for training students or younger engineers in modeling of flight vehicles, trimming the control effectors, analyzing controllability, maneuverability and other performance characteristics of conceptual flight vehicles based on vehicle data. The examples also serve as a user's manual for the software tool by demonstrating how to perform the various analytic functions in multiple vehicle applications. |
| About the Author | Eric T. Falangas was a Lead Engineer/ Specialist and Project Manager at Boeing, Rockwell International and Aerospace Corporation in the fields of flight control design, spacecraft attitude control, vibration control and active vibration isolation, and other control and dynamics related projects. He received a BS in Electrical Engineering from the University of London and a MS in Control Systems from the University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology. Eric has published several papers in magazines and conferences and was awarded 4 patents for developing active vibration control systems using piezo-electric actuator devices, and Flixan, which is a flight vehicle modelling and performance evaluation methodology, implemented in a Windows based program. |
