Several formulations have been proposed to model the dynamics of ornithopters, with inconclusive results regarding the need for complex kinematic formulations. Furthermore, the impact of assumptions made in the collected results was never assessed by comparing simulations with real flight data. In this study two dynamic models of a Flapping Wing...

With the role of angular accelerometers in future fault-tolerant flight control systems, an in-depth evaluation of their performance then becomes a critical issue from the perspective of control system design. In this paper, a position-based calibration table is utilized to provide a sufficiently accurate angular acceleration reference in the...

Avoiding high computational loads is essential to online aerodynamic model identi- fication algorithms, which are at the heart of any model-based adaptive flight control system. Multivariate simplex B-spline (MVSB) methods are excellent function approximation tools for modeling the nonlinear aerodynamics of high performance aircraft. However,...

The optimality of the kernel number and kernel centers plays a significant role in determining the approximation power of nearly all kernel methods. However, the process of choosing optimal kernels is always formulated as a global optimization task, which is hard to accomplish. Recently, an algorithm, namely improved recursive reduced least...

The validation of aerodynamic models created using flight test data is a time consuming and often costly process. In this paper a new method for the validation of global nonlinear aerodynamic models based on multivariate simplex splines is presented. This new method uses the unique properties of the multivariate simplex splines, a recent type of...

The ability to perform online model identification for nonlinear systems with unknown dynamics is essential to any adaptive model-based control system. In this paper, a new differential equality constrained recursive least squares estimator for multivariate simplex splines is presented that is able to perform online model identification and...

A new method is proposed for the identification of global nonlinear models of aircraft non-dimensional force and moment coefficients. The method is based on a recent type of multivariate spline, the multivariate simplex spline, which can accurately approximate very large, scattered nonlinear datasets in any number of dimensions. The new...

A new methodology for creating highly accurate, static nonlinear maps from scattered, multivariate data is presented. This new methodology uses the B-form polynomials of multivariate simplex splines in a new linear regression scheme. This allows the use of standard parameter estimation techniques for estimating the B-coefficients of the...
