About This Course

Analyse primary flight controls and flight control systems together with co-ordinates systems, equations of motion.
Appraise controllability, automatic flight control systems design and analysis.
Apply theories learnt in the lecture with the hands-on laboratory sessions.
Formulate test procedures to evaluate performance of flight control system and interpret results.
Develop computer simulations to assist in understanding aerodynamics concept and perform analysis.
Appraise case studies with theory learnt and relate relevance of lecture material to systems operational in latest aircrafts.

What You'll Learn

The course aims to provide students with an understanding of the principles of flight dynamics and the problems of controlling an aircraft in motion. In the first part, the equations of motion for a rigid body aircraft and the aerodynamics forces and moments are examined. Dynamic stability and response characteristics are defined along with the effects of structural flexibility upon the motion of an aircraft. Flying and handling qualities of an aircraft, and disturbances affecting its motion are next developed. Finally, fundamentals of aircraft feedback control system design and analysis are introduced and stability augmentation and automatic flight control systems are described.
